What is RHA?

The residential student government, known as Residence Hall Association, is a student organization dedicated to fostering a sense of community within halls through various monthly events.  Students living on campus are represented and their voices are conveyed within housing and dining at General Council Meetings.  In addition, our office provides many resources such as free food, drinks, books, board games and video games. First-year students are highly encouraged to get connected with RHA to develop leadership skills and make a difference on campus.  Many of the events and activities during opening weekend and throughout the year are hosted by students just like you.

Mission Statement

The Residence Hall Association actively builds a vibrant community within our residence halls.  We champion the voices of on-campus students, advocating for their needs in housing and dining.  Through ever-growing advocacy, engaging student involvement, leadership development, and innovative programming, RHA cultivates an inclusive, sustainable, and enriching residential experience.
