Residential Curriculum

Residential Education provides an intentional experience for all residents through the use of our residential curriculum. Wellness, Interpersonal Skills, Academic Engagement, and Self-Awareness & Societal Impact serve as the four main learning goals of the residential curriculum. The residential curriculum is present in everything we do; including intentional conversations, passive activities, active programming, community gatherings, roommate agreements, and much more. The residential curriculum shapes how our resident assistants and community managers spend their time, the tasks they are responsible for completing, and the student learning and community development we hope will occur in our communities. The residential curriculum is a valuable tool used to breathe life into the Housing & Residential Education motto of "Best place to live. Best place to work. Best place to learn."
