St. Mary's University is committed to the development of the whole person. The Residence Life staff is a combination of students and professionals who have been trained to encourage and help provide a community environment in which a university student can grow and develop personally and academically.

Living on campus provides many opportunities to discover and develop one's own gifts and talents. The Office of Residence Life works with residents to cultivate these gifts and talents into life skills. Residents will face challenges of personal responsibility as they mature into independent adults. Embracing the University's academic endeavor to create students who are intellectual critical thinkers, the residence halls provide a challenging, yet supportive environment for the residents' development and growth.

"A Residence Life staff member is always available to assist residents."
