Our Area Coordinator and our Residence Directors are full-time, live-in professionals responsible for the health and safety of the students in their residence halls. AC/RDs supervise paraprofessional resident assistants, who are responsible for fostering a sense of community within the residence halls in which they live. Through a student-centered approach, the live-in professional staff aims to create an inclusive, supportive environment where resident students can successfully reach their educational and interpersonal goals.
