Residence Life Staff
The Associate Director of Residence Life is responsible for the overall management of residence hall activities and administrative processes. The Associate Director supports a staff consisting of three Community Coordinators (CCs), and up to 28 Resident Advisors (RAs). CCs are professional staff members who have received specialized training in Student Affairs and oversee the daily operation of our residence halls. In order to be fully engaged in the community and to best support students, CCs also live in the residence hall that they oversee. RAs, are trained student leaders who serve as an advisor, role model, confidant and liaison to the Manhattanville community. Together, the RAs work with their building RD to develop a cohesive community. If an issue or question arises which is outside the scope of the CCs, or RAs purview, the staff member will refer the matter in question to the appropriate person or campus resource.
Staff Duty Coverage
A professional staff member ( a CC) is “on call” 24 hours each day to respond to emergencies and act as a resource for the Resident Advisors (RAs) in each building. Resident Advisors are “on duty” in each hall from 7:30pm to 8:00am each weekday and 24 hours on the weekend. Problems of any kind should be reported to the RA on duty. The name, room number and photo of the “RA on duty” is posted every evening at the front entrance to each hall. The RA on duty will contact the CC on call when needed.
