What should I expect? The education you will receive at Fordham University, one of only 28

Jesuit colleges and universities in the United States, is unique. The lessons you will

learn outside the classroom complement those you’ll learn within it. Just as high

academic standards are a staple at Fordham, you will also encounter high standards

of conduct in our residence halls, as these four years are training for greater service,

responsibility, and challenge after graduation.



3

The staff members who work in the halls will guide

you in this education and are there to assure your

responsibilities as well as your rights. During your

first days on campus, you will meet your residentassistant (RA). Each RA is handpicked from the

student body for his or her ability to lead and act

as a role model for students. RAs provide services

and program opportunities, but they also guide and

counsel students who live on campus. You will also

meet our resident directors (RD), who are in charge

of your residence hall or housing area. RAs and RDs

are important people to get to know.

One of the roles of the staff is to work with students

who may make poor decisions in their conduct or

behavior, or who test the limits of the University

Code of Conduct. Students arriving for life on campus

will find the challenge of personal responsibility

and independence an intense and indispensable

introduction to adulthood. This, too, is part of a

Jesuit education, as the values learned inside theclassroom inform the standards for our community

and are played out in everyday life at Lincoln Center

and Rose Hill.

The Office of Residential Life supports an over

arching vision of creating community in all its

efforts. A residence hall community is a group of

students engaged in social interaction, possessing

common educational goals and experiences, who

show concern for and are sensitive to the needs of

other residents, and are interested in furthering

the group’s goals. Residents share in defining the

community’s expectations of members and are held

to these expectations by their peers. The Office

of Residential Life is sensitive to the rights and

responsibilities of all resident students. In an effort to

make our community conducive to academic, social,and personal growth, policies have been established

to ensure that individual rights are protected and

responsibilities are understood.

carefully so you are prepared
