Living on campus in one of the five residence halls is an important part of the full college experience. Your floormates will become your second family — a network of friends who you’ll bond with over shared meals, late night study sessions and Netflix binges.

Each of the residence halls has a resident director, a staff member who coordinates residence life programming and oversees the resident assistants, better known as RAs. RAs are students, typically upperclassmen, who live on each floor of the hall and serve as a liaison and resource for the residents. RAs plan regular activities, like game night and trips to popular New York City destinations, to create a bonded community on their floor.
