There are 29 resident assistants (RAs) that serve in our four residence hall communities. An RA is an undergraduate staff member who lives in a residence hall and whose primary responsibility is to facilitate the development of a community atmosphere among the students on each floor. RAs plan programs and activities for residents as well as respond to maintenance concerns, provide basic counseling, handle emergencies and identify students who behave in an inappropriate manner and refer them for disciplinary action when necessary.

The residence hall coordinator is a professional staff member who lives on campus. He or she manages operational functions in his or her living area, provides personal and disciplinary counseling, supervises the RAs and coordinates developmental programming.
