The Office of Residence Life (ORL) is committed
to providing an intentional living experience
that fosters students' development, supports
academic success, and celebrates diversity.
Involving students, faculty, and staff in the
learning process, ORL strives to engage students
in dialogue, interaction, and
perspective-taking, continuously challenging
students to increase their understanding of the
world in which they live.
To
accomplish this, ORL employs over 350 staff
members throughout its 19 residence halls,
apartments, and central offices on North and
South Campuses. Full-time, master's level
Residence Directors (RDs) administer the
residential program in the residence halls and
apartments. Each RD is supported by either a
full-time Assistant Residence Director (ARD) or
Programming Assistant (PA).
Additionally, each residence hall has a staff of
Resident Advisors (RAs) who live with and
support the residents on the floors. Our ratio
of RAs to residents is about 1 RA to every 35
residents. Additionally, Main Desk Assistants (MDAs)
staff each residence hall main desk, providing
information and mail services to the residents
of the building. The Central Office provides
support, guidance, and supervision of the
overall residential experience. Finally, our
Administrative Support personnel and Graduate
Assistants provide dedicated support throughout
the department.
