Graduate Upper-Division Halls
Residents of our graduate upper-division halls can get involved with the Resident Leadership Board (RLB). The RLB is made up of diverse student leaders and residents from both buildings. Students can become a part of the RLB at any time during the year. The organization’s goals focus around a wide range of events and activities from suggesting improvements, to leadership development, to planning social events. Read more about the Resident Leadership Board. Request meeting/event space.
