Each residence area is administered by an Area Director to whom hall staff in the area report. Area Directors are responsible for the planning and direction of all student personnel administrative activities in their assigned residence halls, for the supervision of professional and student staff, for advising elected student officers and committee chairpersons, and for appropriate individual and group advising. Assistant Residence Directors are graduate students who share responsibilities with the Residence Director and function primarily in the areas of supervision, management of judicial caseload, community development, and general administration. Resident Assistants are undergraduates who receive direct supervision from the Residence Directors. Maintenance and Operations Staff are responsible for the management of buildings in specified residential areas.
Managers coordinate facilities work in each residential area.
Maintenance and Opera-tions staff work collaboratively with Residence Life staff in the coordination of maintenance and custodial activities, and on such matters as interior design, residence hall openings and closings, furniture replacement and inventory, key control, recycling, and project planning. Special Projects Coordinator is primarily responsible for supervising summer grounds work in areas adjacent to the residence halls and those surrounding Family Housing apartment units. The staff is composed solely of student employees who remain engaged with grounds related tasks all year long. Members of this staff also assist with the Recycling Program which operates during the academic year. The coordinator works collaboratively with Maintenance and Operations and Residence Life staff on a variety of projects, including moving furniture and equipment, planting flower beds, creating exterior sitting areas, re planting grass, selecting and planting replacement trees, and preparing areas for memorial plantings.
