RHA - COOK OFF!RHA had an awesome cook off in early February where students made their favorite recipes and then we had a feast all together! IT was awesome. Some pics are attached. RHA also hosted a Jeopardy Game where students answered trivia to win great Office Supply prizes! We had categories like Nerd culture and Careers and Etiquette. Right now RHA is working on a Murder Mystery Event and a Giant Quidditch Tournament for the spring!

END OF SEMESTER FINAL CHECKOUTSCommencement: Friday, May 8, 2015. Residence Halls close at NOON on May 8th. Prepare NOW! We strongly encourage you and your student to start NOW in making end-of-semester plans – travel arrangements, plans to attend summer school, summer housing, etc. Unless your student plans to apply to live on campus for summer school, residents must schedule and check out with their respective RA within 24 hours after their final exams. Residence Halls officially close at 12 noon on Friday, May 8, 2015. Unless on-campus summer school housing for Summer I has been confirmed with your student, all Blastercard access will be stopped at noon Friday, May 8th.

SUMMER SCHOOL HOUSINGIs your student taking summer school class(es) this summer? If so, we will offer housing on campus for students to reside in. We will be sending out emails, posting flyers, and having floor meetings about this once finalized. Students will NOT be required to purchase a meal plan; however, summer meal plans will be available to them if they decide to purchase one. Summer housing will be offered in one of the residence halls that have kitchen facilities to give students the opportunity to cook their own meals if they so choose! Stay tuned for further announcements from Residence Life as to how to sign up for summer housing on-line, rates, FAQ, etc.
