Residence Hall Staff The NSU Office of Residence Life utilizes a variety of staff members to provide our students with a living environment that best serves their needs. In addition to our Director of Residence Life and Dining Services in the Office of Residence Life, we also have an Associate Directors of Residential Experience, who works with our student staff to provide a strong community and educational experience for our students utilizing a residential curriculum that offers a variety of programs and outreach within each hall. . Also within our Central office is our Residential Community Coordinator (RCC) and Residential Facilities Coordinator (RFC). The RCC is responsible for housing assignments, roommate negotiations, room changes and assisting the student staff in community building efforts. The RFC acts as the main liaison with our facilities staff to assure the prompt completion of work orders and maintain a high standard of upkeep and condition of our residence halls. Our Hall Coordinators are graduate students who have displayed a true commitment to providing a rich, conducive living environment for our students. These students have direct supervision over our resident assistants and should be utilized by the residents of their halls due to their vast knowledge of community living. Senior Resident Assistants are upper-class students with a breadth of knowledge regarding on-campus living and have been selected and trained to assist in the day-to-day operation of their respective hall. Do not hesitate to take advantage of their knowledge to make your on-campus experience better, The Resident Assistant (RA) is the community facilitator living within each community with the students. The RA is a student that is specially trained to work with the residents. The RA is responsible for developing a sense of community on the floor. The RA plans/facilitates programs, is responsible for administrative work on the floor, and acts as a mentor and advisor to their residents. In cooperation with the students, the RA enforces the policies and procedures in the residence halls. One of the first persons each student will meet when they get to Northern is their Resident Assistant. Each RA has met special criteria (2.40 GPA or better, residence hall living experience, and is in good standing with the University) and has been trained to best promote community development. In conjunction with the Hall Councils, the RA will hold floor and wing meetings through-out the year to keep students up to date on campus and residence hall events. They will help facilitate programming to enhance student’s academic experience outside of the classroom. They are also a resource person for the residents and are available to assist them in any and all facets of their college experience. Our Housekeepers work within the Facilities Management Department to assure that residents have clean public areas to live and learn in. However, each resident is responsible for their own hall rooms as well as their own bathroom areas in those halls that provide private and semi-private bathrooms. We hope that you come to know and rely on your residence hall staff. They are all anxious to assist you in any way possible. If you are interested in joining our staff, talk to your current RA or inquire at the Office of Residence Life.
