Everyone knows that the university experience is more than taking tests and accruing credits. It's about having new experiences; it's about discovering educational and social opportunities; it's about stepping out on your own. It's as much about the way you live as it is about the classes you take. Campus living will help you make the most of your university experience.
Clearly, residents have easy access to campus resources, programs, and support systems, which increase their chances of success. Students who live on campus during their college years may be more successful and prepared for life than those who do not. They are more likely to become involved in activities that enhance their leadership potential and marketability. Finally, people who live on campus have an outstanding opportunity to develop rich interpersonal skills. Consistently, students report that many of their treasured memories and lasting friendships originated while living in the residence halls.
Living on campus is convenient, economical, socially and academically beneficial, and adds to your complete development as a student. It provides you with opportunities to have fun, relax and unwind while you learn - in short, an education beyond the classroom.
We feel that campus living combines the essential elements for a successful college experience. Even if you live nearby, it's well worth spending your college years on campus. I wish you the best of luck in your new adventure.
Sincerely,
Dallas W. Bauman III
Assistant Vice President, Campus Residences
