The Office of Residential Life has recently migrated our housing management to The StarRez. This software program allows students the ability to complete housing related tasks, including facilities work orders and room selection, online. Additionally, this is where students will be able to fill out their housing contracts, room condition reports, and other necessary forms.
All of these functions can be completed by following this link.

Theme Houses
The Division of Student Life accepts proposals from the student body to create special interest communities that focus on a specific theme each year. The theme should contribute to the broader educational and social growth of the community.
