RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMDORM LIFE AND ROOMMATESIn VIA's community, the "out of the classroom" education is important to all of us. There is more to your room than a place to sleep. You are learning from your roommates, your neighbors, and the rest of the students. You are also in a tight-knit community that involves dedicated staff and faculty members that reside in the hall. These staff and faculty members will enrich your college experience with educational programs, exciting activities, and a supportive environment outside of the normal classroom learning. This aspect of the community allows many students to grow as individuals and to thrive in our community. As a community, everyone shares in making the environment one in which the residents can sleep and study, as well as have fun. With the assistance of the staff, you can help in making your living area a place to be proud of. RESIDENCE LIFE STAFFThe residence halls are supervised by full-time professionals who manage the buildings, and whose efforts are aimed at making the most of your living experience at VIA. The staff's most important role is to help you and your neighbors create a safe and healthy community. They formally and informally educate residents about community development and assist in maintaining a cooperative atmosphere where groups of students with different lifestyles co-exist. They are also responsible for communicating and enforcing policies. Get to know the staff, he or she is a great resource for the community.
