Living on campus is a great opportunity for you to become involved in your new community. We are excited to have you be a part of our community. The University thinks this is so important that all first, second, and third year students are required to live on campus.

All freshmen live in buildings with other freshmen. Freshman housing is in Delaney and Faulkner Hall. Greystone students also live in LA Schreiner Hall. Each building is unique, but something you'll find in common among all residence halls is an enthusiastic and supportive staff. The Residence Life staff manages the halls and offers guidance and help however they can.

Transfer and upperclassmen students live in the Pecan Grove apartments, The Oaks apartment complex, Trull and Flato and LA Schreiner Halls.

You will probably experience the most personal freedom you have ever had when you move on campus. Along with this freedom comes responsibility. Responsibility is not simply knowing and obeying written rules and regulations, although that is a part of it. Responsibility also means contributing to a positive experience for the group as a whole, respecting differing points of view and the rights of others, personal integrity, refraining from causing harm to another person or to property, and living a purposeful, humane, and productive life in the community.

There are few opportunities to live in such a tightly knit community than in college housing. Sharing a room or suite with other people and space with hundreds of others is a unique and often challenging experience. We encourage you to work hard at making your experience a positive one.
