Our Mission
The Office of Residential Life supports the academic mission of the College by providing a well-maintained residential environment for learning that respects and appreciates individual differences and promotes a sense of community. The office is dedicated to challenging and supporting women as they progress through their college years. Residential Life staff in each hall fosters leadership, promotes understanding of diverse backgrounds and lifestyles, encourages cooperative decision-making and supports activities that allow students to uncover and broaden their interests. Each student's development is facilitated through empowering her to solve problems, initiate activities, and be active in her hall community.
