Office of Residence Life Staff

Your Residence Life Staff Is Here to Support You

During your time on campus, students have the opportunity to engage in meaningful educational experiences in and outside of the classroom. Your choice to attend CMC and live on campus has set you up to succeed, putting you at the forefront of opportunities to learn, grow, and be curious.

As you begin your CMC experience and become familiar with your new community, be open to understanding those who appear to be different from you, courageously seek new experiences, and respectfully share your own perspectives with others. The Residence Life Staff will encourage you to dive into your courses and the campus community early. Consider getting involved in some of the many clubs, organizations, or activities on campus.

Residence Life Staff Positions

The Office of Residence Life coordinates all aspects of on-campus living at the Colorado Mountain College residential campuses. The Residence Life staff on each campus includes trained professional and student staff:

  • Resident Assistants (RA) and Senior Resident Assistants (SRA) are students living in the hall.
  • The Residence Life Assistant Coordinator (RLAC) is a full-time professional staff that lives in the hall.
  • The Residence Life Coordinator (RLC) is a full-time professional staff that lives in the hall.
  • The Director of Student Life & Housing lives off campus.

Striving to provide the best experience possible

The Office of Residence Life seeks resident input and is committed to providing you with the best experience possible. You are encouraged to stop by the Office of Residence Life or talk with Residence Life staff to share concerns, ideas, or suggestions. We believe that living in a residence hall can be an opportunity for residents to experience the open exchange of ideas and social growth.

Living on campus makes it easy to integrate into the campus social network of peers, faculty, and staff, and extracurricular activities to explore aesthetic, cultural, and intellectual attitudes and values while residing in a structured environment. This integration significantly and positively influences the residential student’s academic achievement and degree completion.

The Residence Life Mission

In alignment with Colorado Mountain College’s Strategic Plan, the mission of the Office of Residence Life is to provide an inclusive and safe place to live, learn, and grow while pursuing your academic adventure.  The goals of the Office of Residence Life are:
