Residence Life is passionate about empowering diverse individuals to live, learn and grow in a nurturing environment. Our team is dedicated to serve as a resource in cultivating an inclusive and inviting community rich in faith, integrity and truth. As committed innovators, we embody personal and community development to promote a holistic and meaningful experience.

Living within a community offers a significant contribution to the holistic educational development of each student. The Residence Life program seeks to establish an atmosphere that stimulates growth, encourages individual responsibility in decision-making, and provides for acceptances of others as persons of worth. Developing good citizenship, learning and accepting the meaning of responsibility, and recognizing the rights of others are goals of UIW Residence Life living.

The Resident Assistants provide programming and activities, which allow the residents to take an intentional journey at UIW utilizing the Journey Seeker Community Development Model.  Each month, the RA Team will focus on themes important to residents at all level. The monthly themes include the following: motivation, engagement, skill setting, civility, spirituality, identity, diversity, community service, career planning, and reflection. Our primary goal is to create various opportunities for all residents to develop both communally and personally. In addition, our hope is that through this experience, residents will broaden their horizons and increase their human understanding.

Our residence halls are an excellent place to meet new friends, participate in numerous activities, develop new interests, and learn to live and grow in a community extremely rich in diversity.  We are committed, passionate and enthusiastic about sharing this experience with each resident as our journey continues!
