Central Office Staff Members

Resident Assistants
There are several staff members that are available to students that can be great resources for you.
Residence Hall Directors are college graduates. They are full-time professionals who work and live in the halls. They assist RA’s in offering the best experience for students. They are knowledgeable about campus resources and can assist residents with problems or find the right campus resource to assist.
Resident Assistants or RA’s are students who live on each floor or wing. They also are trained in campus resources, policy, protocol and crisis intervention. This is the first place to go when you have questions.
Central Office Staff Members work in Tod Wehr Hall (Resource Fair). The central staff runs overall processes such as housing selection and placement.
