Office of Residential Life Mission Statement

The Office of Residential Life is committed in providing quality living options, programs and services that support the academic mission of Western by promoting safety, encouraging student development, and fostering the understanding and appreciation of diversity within our community. In order to carry out this mission we believe in the following principles:

 

  • Providing safe, secure, clean and reasonably priced residential environments conducive to the academic and personal development of the student;
  • Providing services, programs and activities, which encourage students to mature intellectually, emotionally and spiritually so as to add value to their community, and society at large;
  • Selecting and training professional and paraprofessional staff committed to developing residential communities which emphasize student development principles;
  • Providing residential environments that honor human diversity which embrace students as individuals -- each with rights and responsibilities -- each with unique goals and needs.
