All apartment and suites contain a living room, three to four bedrooms, and two or three baths for 4-7 students.
Suites are like apartments, but they are without the kitchen and dining room table.
Because these units are highly coveted housing assignments, apartment and suites are claimed by returning upper class students. The idea of community is further fostered by the Resident Staff who live in the buildings. Kent has two Resident Assistants, and a full time Resident Director. The Resident Staff are responsible for management of the residence halls, and for cultural, social, educational, and recreational programming. Residents can aid the Staff in programming and become involved in their living environment through the South Hill Area Council.
