University Housing & Dining is currently accepting applicants for the Faculty-in-Residence program. This structured program promotes interaction between students and faculty through out-of-classroom experiences. The faculty-in-residence lives in a specially designed apartment within or adjacent to a residence hall so that the faculty member and their family can share the residence hall living experience with students. Participants help plan and implement educational, recreational, social and cultural programs while serving as a role model, mentor, adviser, teacher, and leader in the residential community.
A successful faculty-in-residence will be interested in students and have the desire to relate to students in a residential setting, outside of the classroom or laboratory. They will be able to articulate programming ideas and community development initiatives that will enhance the collegiate experience of students in the residence halls as well as have meaningful interactions with individual residents in the community.
Faculty-in-Residence training will begin in July 2016 and will reside in the Holmes/McCabe residential community where a majority of the residents are first-year students and there is a heavy concentration of active living-learning communities.
The deadline to apply for the position is April 1. Learn more and access applications here. Contact Suzanne Price with questions about the program or the application process.
