STUDENT HOUSING There are four residence halls available to students desiring to live on campus. Living in the residence halls provides an excellent opportunity for students to live, work, and study together. The College is committed to the total development of students: intellectual, personal, and physical. Within this context, it is the College's philosophy that the residence halls be a "living-learning" environment, one where residents have an opportunity to interact with students from different parts of the country and the world, develop interpersonal relationships, and learn about themselves as human beings. Research has demonstrated that students living on campus generally receive a more well-rounded educational experience than those who commute. The residence halls are staffed by full-time, live-in Resident Directors who are responsible for the administration of the buildings. They are assisted by Resident Assistants who are full-time students that have been selected and trained to assist residents in the development of floor atmospheres which are conducive to learning, personal growth, and enjoyment.
