Living in a University residence hall requires students to possess the life skills that are needed to live independently and to interact with other residents in mature, civil, respectful, and healthy ways. It also requires students to recognize, understand, and appreciate that a room, floor, and building are a community. A community is more than common physical space and time together, though those are important. Rather, it is a collection of diverse people with interests and needs that are fulfilled by sharing resources according to fair rules and expectations about how to treat one another while using those shared resources to achieve individual educational goals.
