Hall Council – Hall council members are elected to plan social and educational programs for all community residents as well as participate in discussions about important issues. Hall council is an easy, fun way to get involved and to meet many more people in your community. Any student can run for a hall council position in their assigned residence hall.
Resident Student Association (RSA) – Each residence hall council elects members to serve as part of this organization. Members from all halls meet to discuss policies and activities such as Lil' sibs weekend and Halloween walk.
National Residence Hall Honorary (NRHH) – its members are composed of the top one percent of the student leaders within the residence halls and have held positions in RSA, and/or hall council or have been resident advisers (RA’s).
