Every student has something to contribute to our residential community, and the
experience for every student is enhanced by living in this community. Residential
students are more active in campus organizations and activities, and have greater
interactions with their faculty and peers. This results in students who are more
satisfied with their college experience, perform better academically, and are more
likely to graduate. The residential experience is a powerful tool in promoting the
bond between students and the university.
Being a full-time student is an intense, stressful lifestyle. As research and
experience show, on-campus housing provides the quality, flexibility and
student-friendly environment that best supports this lifestyle, yielding more
satisfied and better-performing students.
