Residence Student Leaders

Residence Executive

(subject to change)
All residence students are represented by elected student leaders who live in the residences. The Residence Executive is made up of a president, vice-president from each building, a treasurer and secretary. There are also floor/section representatives elected from each building beginning in September. The Residence Executive are responsible for organizing events, building spirit among the residents, and acting as a resource for people.

Residence Life Advisors

Several upper-year students live in each Hall and are employed as Residence Life Advisors. The RLAs have a wide range of responsibilities, both on their residence floor/section and throughout all residences. The RLAs exist primarily to help students adjust to residence and university life, and to establish an environment conducive to self-direction, self-discipline, and self-improvement of the residents. They are trained in peer counselling, conflict mediation, First Aid/CPR, and much more. RLAs are knowledgeable about on-campus facilities and services, and can direct students to available resources as required. Each RLA is also responsible for planning and implementing various residence programs aimed at enhancing the overall residence and/or university experience. RLAs act as a liaison between the residents and the Residence Administrators. Since residence life encompasses a variety of different activities, RLAs strive to achieve a balance between quiet study and relaxing social events, so that the residence environment becomes a productive and enjoyable one for all residents.
