Our Residential Life faculty is made up of a diverse group of college-educated Residential Advisors (RAs), headed by the Dean of Residential Life. CPR and first aid training for faculty occurs before students arrive in the fall. While on duty, faculty members oversee the operations of the dorm and the safety of the residents while encouraging students to be independent and responsible.
RA's meet once a week to discuss residential issues, while the entire department meets once a month for professional development. Whenever possible, the Dean of Residential Life arranges for guest speakers to meet with the dorm staff and discuss such varied topics as emergency preparedness and techniques for relating to teenagers. We are always working to maintain the strength of our faculty.
