LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Being involved on-campus and within the residence
halls is one of the best ways to get the most out of
your college experience! Students involved with
URHA or the Residence Hall Council
go on to become RAs and active leaders of UT's
campus community.
Residence Hall Council (RHC) Everyone
who
resides in a University residence hall is automatically
a member of their hall's RHC. You can attend RHC
meetings to find out what is going on in your area.
The RHCs implement programming to foster a
better sense of community in the residence halls
and increase overall development of a community
atmosphere. Get involved and you could help out
with organizing fun activities. Ask your RA or HC
how to get involved!
University Residence Hall Association (URHA) The
University Residence Hall Association (URHA)
is a student organization committed to improving
the quality of residence life for on-campus students.
URHA performs a variety of functions to
serve the best interests of our residents. URHA's
voting body is comprised of 16 Senators, representing
each hall on campus. These senators also serve
as Residence Hall Council (RHC) officers in their
individual halls. URHA also implements programming
to provide a strong sense of belonging to the
residence halls. Get involved and you could help
out with organizing fun activities and passing
important legislation in your living environment!
Judicial Board The DHFS Residence Hall Student
Judicial Board provides residence hall students a
means to have disciplinary cases reviewed in a peer
level environment. The Judicial Board conducts itself
as a formal process for the Division of Housing and
Food Service and for the University. Judicial Board
members review alleged policy violations by their
peers and determine if the student is responsible for
the violation. If the Judicial Board finds the student
responsible, they also determine what kinds of sanctions
are appropriate. Call for new members to the Judicial Board happens every summer.
Residence Hall Program Team RHPT is a group of student leaders who assist
in coordinating large and small scale events specifically designed for the residence
halls. RHPT puts on events throughout the year that include comedians, live bands, cultural events and much more.
