A brief insight of the organization and its functionality
Lindenwood Residential Hall Association is a student-run university residence hall governing body that focuses on campus living. The organization is primarily focused on giving residents a greater voice to facilitate change in their halls. It is also concerned with—but not limited to—promoting and conducting:
- 各种各样的 educational programs and activities that build community among residents.
- Conducting and implementing 大厅改善 initiatives—which are ideas that seeks to improve the quality of the hall as a whole within a reasonable fashion.
- 沟通 政策问题 and finding ways to resolve them as well as proposing changes to 政策 在大厅里.
Each hall will consist of one or more representatives that coordinate RHA initiatives. Residents of each hall are encouraged to play an active role in their hall’s RHA. Meetings will be held by the Hall representatives.
除了, an executive council that consists of one representative from each hall will lead a general assembly to discuss issues, 建议, and other changes for specific hall or on a campus wide platform. RHA executive council meeting will be held once a month and will be supervised by RHA Advisors. 代表resentatives from each hall are allowed to attend the council meeting but only one vote will be recognized per hall.
When campus wide initiatives are proposed, committees will be made to handle the components that the 建议 dictate/need in order to be submitted. Whereas hall specific 建议 will be developed by the representatives in that hall.
RHA is a separate entity from Lindenwood 学生会. RHA focuses on implementing changes and furthering the betterment of individual halls by individual hall councils and (or) the executive council.
