The Office of Housing and Residential Life strives to provide a nurturing, safe, enriching environment that fosters lifelong learning and allows students to grow intellectually and socially. Students are exposed to an interactive living-learning experience that provides hands-on opportunities to interact with students in the residential communities designed to make their college experience meaningful.  
 
Housing over 2,300 students, the University has developed a comprehensive approach to the co-curricular experience by focusing on the development of community. Our professional, live-in staff, along with our student resident assistants and office assistants, works hard to provide a great living-learning experience through purposeful and directed programs and experiences.  
 
Whether it is serving as a board member for your hall’s Residence Hall Association, attending a building program or one of our Friday After Dark weekend programs, or being part of a Peer Success Group we offer a range of opportunities to become involved with the campus community. We believe living on campus is part of a student’s total college experience. Making lifelong friends and learning how to live and interact with others is great practice for life after Eastern.  
 
We do have rules, regulations, and expectations for how our residents conduct themselves. They can be found on-line in the Housing Contract and on the University website under Housing and Residential Life.  Please note that housing policies and procedures are subject to change.
