A true sense of community is a priority in the daily life of the dorm. We have many people of different cultures living under one roof, calling one place home. Our daily routines and programs focus on building a positive and nurturing environment.
Every Monday night, the entire dorm gathers with staff for a meeting. This is a time when students learn about upcoming activities and events, and when they can also make announcements and ask questions. Students are always encouraged to make their voices heard. Attendance at dinner is also required on Sundays through Thursdays, so that the dorm may gather as a whole.
Students also invest in and take responsibility for the quality of our surroundings. Five times a week, groups of students take the time to clean the building, doing normal household tasks like taking out garbage and washing dishes. Everyone is a part of keeping this place a pleasant place to live.
