Experience of a Lifetime™

LIVE In THE cEnTER oF IT aLL: THE FIRsT-YEaR ExpERIEncE

College comes with lots of new experiences — late-night study sessions, new friends, spur-of-the-moment outings, newfound interests and more. and the best way to make the college experience everything you want it to be in your first year is to live on campus, where you’re readily connected to all the activities, support services and resources oregon state has to offer. That’s why all new students are required to live in an on-campus residence hall or cooperative house during their first year of studies. national studies show that living on campus helps students thrive academically and personally during their first year. here’s how:An academic boost: First-year students who live in a residence hall or co-op typically earn higher grades than those who live off campus. each hall hosts a writing and math tutor every week, as well as events, workshops and seminars during the year. Plus, you’ll find ready-made

“You meet so many people and can be a part of a larger community. I have friends all over campus that I see just walking by every day. I wouldn’t have known them if I hadn’t lived in the halls.”

study groups with your neighbors. students who live on campus their first year tend to graduate more quickly than those who don’t. That means savings on tuition and a sooner start on your future.

Connected to campus: When you live on campus, you can be independent, but not alone. With more than 350 student clubs, along with all kinds of activities and events happening every day, there are always new friends to make, new experiences to try and new interests to discover. It’s a diverse and welcoming community where you can feel comfortable being yourself and learning more about others. You’ll also find many opportunities to make connections with faculty both in and out of the classroom — an excellent source for support and motivation.

Help when you need it: support is right outside your door. There’s a resident assistant (ra) on each floor or wing and a resident director (rd) in each building, ready to help with everything from finding your classes to figuring out what to do on a tuesday night.

“the ras are the most amazing people. I love that I’m taking classes with others in my hall, too. We also get to study for other classes together and share notes and our experiences with professors.”

— susan dunham | Mathematics Wilson hall | hood river, ore.

a variety of academic support centers are just steps away, offering free tutoring and other services in almost every subject. all over campus, you’ll find resources with the answers you need — even the ones you didn’t know you were looking for.

No unexpected expenses: all of your basic living expenses are covered in one bill, including your dining plan with a choice of 30 restaurants across campus. Plus, our residence hall rates include services and amenities you’d have to pay extra for off campus: high-speed Internet, utilities, extended basic cable, even free laundry. nor do you have to worry about maintenance and repairs. We’ve got that covered.

Safe space: all residence halls and co-ops are locked 24 hours a day, and only residents and building staff have key access. In addition, the campus is well lit and regularly patrolled by the oregon state Police.

“Living on campus pretty much means you will always have someone to hang out with and an easy way to become aware of any campus activities and how to get involved in them.”

— Claudia rojas | Pre-nuclear engineering halsell hall | Columbia

Shawna Fujita Animal Science Mililani, Oahu, Hawaii


BRAndy CORdEiRO And SHAWnA FUjiTA both thought it would be a better experience to live on campus for their first year at oregon state. Coming from hawaii, “we didn’t really know anyone,” shawna says. not even each other.

Brandy knew she wanted to find a roommate who shared her culture. “I was looking for a roommate from hawaii because we’d have more things in common,” she says.

using the roommate Matching network, the two found each other and bonded over their similar backgrounds and interest in oregon state. They took a virtual tour of the residence halls, which Brandy says was “super helpful,” getting the suite-style room they wanted in Bloss hall.

“We didn’t actually meet in person until start,” shawna says. But once they met, the two found themselves getting along easily — even their parents liked each other.

shawna and Brandy have enjoyed taking advantage of multiple opportunities on campus. shawna likes playing intramural sports — bowling, soccer and softball — while Brandy has appreciated the chance to experience new things. “You find your independence here by taking everything in,” Brandy says.

The best part of having a roommate is having someone to talk to. “If you were by yourself, you would be lonely,” shawna says. “Very lonely,” Brandy agrees.

They give credit to the roommate Matching network for finding such a good fit as roommates. “Who knows what we would have gotten,” shawna says. “It has been perfect for us.”

AFTER living in A RESidEnCE HAll HiS FiRST yEAR, Michael Moore decided to stay on campus for his sophomore year.

“The atmosphere here is great,” he says. “There is a very social feel, and you’re surrounded by peers ready to help you with homework or to study with.”

now roommates, Michael and Karl smith met in the residence halls last year: “he’s a great guy and a great roommate,” Michael says.

Both Michael and Karl appreciate how easy it is to get from class to their home base on the fourth floor of Wilson hall. and when he’s not studying for his dual engineering degrees, Karl loves camping out for football tickets at nearby reser stadium.

“My freshman year I chose to live here (Wilson hall) to meet more people studying in my field and make new friends,” Karl

says. “I decided to return to the residence halls because of the conveniences and communities they provide.”

Karl suggests that new students use the roommate Matching network to find someone to live with who is coming to oregon state from a city other than their own. “Putting the strain of living together on a high school friendship may not have the results you hoped for,” he says.

Michael’s advice on living with a roommate: “If you ever disagree about something, talk it out.”

Michael and Karl see huge value in living on campus during the transition to college. “The most helpful aspect of living in the hall was the sense of community throughout it,” Karl says.

“My ras have been very helpful in both my years here, and being a part of hall council has me involved with a variety of activities across campus.”

EDucaTIonaL LIVInG EnVIRonmEnTs

National studies continually show that students who live on campus, thrive on campus. You’ll be encouraged to succeed by living with your peers and getting support from professional staff and faculty members who live and/or work in the halls. Students who live on campus are more likely to:

• Knowtheirprofessors.• Feelmorecomfortabletalkingwithprofessors

and administrators.• GenerallyfeelmoreconnectedtoOregonState.• Havehighergradesthanthosewholiveoff-campus.• Returnforsecondyearincollege.


More than 83 percent of our on-campus residents return to oregon state after their first year. That’s a higher percentage than those who do not live on campus.

uhds sponsors a number of programs to help students achieve academic success. each hall also hosts a writing and math tutor weekly. In addition, we offer a variety of events during the year, such as Faculty Fellow dinners, the Faculty Connections program, academic recognition events and various workshops, seminars and events that enhance students’ connections to their academic life.

Austin Entrepreneurship Program — Weatherford Residential CollegeWith a rich tradition of innovation, creativity and originality, historic Weatherford residential College is the home of the austin entrepreneurship Program (aeP).

at the core of this unique community is a visionary group of self-starters consisting of 290 students from diverse disciplines, visiting professionals, industry leaders and a live-in entrepreneurship professor.

With its distinctive case rooms, executive suites for visiting entrepreneurs, a faculty apartment and most importantly, incubator spaces, Weatherford residential College is a fitting environment for potentially creating the businesses and organizations of the future. The Weatherford residential College is a comfortable and exciting environment where residents live, dine, work and dream together, sharing a common interest in entrepreneurial adventure.

Whether you are enrolled in the entrepreneurship academic program or just interested in getting involved in innovative activities, consider living in Weatherford residential College. all majors are welcome. all residents are charged a College of Business fee for aeP participation, which is incorporated into the rate of the room (approximately $300 per term).


Community Service LearningBloss hall has a Community service Learning theme in which the hall staff work with residents to create a compelling living and learning experience with the community. Community service Learning is a concept that promotes responsible citizenry, and it fully integrates experiential, hands-on learning activities with a student’s academic and social experience.

students learn to make the connection between belief in helping others and acting to influence social change in the hall, around campus, off campus and globally.

International ExperienceThe International Living-Learning Center is designed for international students, as well as those interested in the world community. student programs and events encourage communication, involvement and positive community interactions, with a focus on foreign languages, cultural studies, study abroad and connections with campus international programs. Many domestic students living in the hall are paired with an international roommate.

University Honors College Residential ProgramWest hall is the residence hall for the university honors College (uhC), offering a close-knit, welcoming community that encourages academic and personal growth. at West, both honors and non-honors students live and learn together, discuss and act on community issues and have fun. honors classes and academic success classes are taught in the West classroom, and faculty and staff are available in the hall for advising and support. students enjoy academically focused programming and have access to multiple study areas within the hall.

Gender-Inclusive Livinghome to upper-division and transfer student communities, halsell hall features unique gender-inclusive living suites. This housing option is directed at students interested in choosing roommates or suitemate groupings regardless of gender identification. halsell hall’s suite-style living provides a comfortable, welcoming living environment for students with gender-variant identities.

Engineering, Math and Science ProgramWilson hall offers a variety of exciting opportunities and services for engineering students.

as part of the engineering community, students have the unique opportunity to create connections between their in-class and out-of-class experiences. The hall features an engineering resource Center, equipped with study tables, a resource library and computers students may access 24 hours a day. students with College of engineering computer network accounts may log on to any of these computers and use an array of engineering software without leaving the hall.

The Wilson resident director works closely with College of engineering faculty and advisers to enhance the learning opportunities for all engineering students — with special emphasis on programs for women and students of color who are considering pursuing engineering degrees.


Sustainability is Built Insustainability is built into every construction project at oregon state. all new buildings, including residence halls, must achieve a Leed silver or higher rating (Leed stands for the u.s. green Building Council’s Leadership in energy and environmental design program).

our newest residence hall, the International Living-Learning Center, opened in 2011. The $52-million center, home to Into osu international programs, along with 320 international and domestic students, is built to Leed gold rating standards. sustainability features include:

• Rooftopsolar-thermalpanelsthatprovidehotwaterthroughoutthebuilding.

• Heatrecoveryunitsthatreuseheatthatwouldhaveotherwisebeenlost.

• High-efficiencyLED,fluorescentandnaturallightingthathelpsreducepoweruse.

• Dual-flushtoiletsandlow-flowshowerheadsthatreducewaterconsumption.

Coming in Fall 2014! New Student Residenceoregon state is building a new student residence hall that’s scheduled to open in the fall of 2014. The 85,000-square-foot residence hall, most of which features three-bedroom suites with a shared bathroom, will house about 300 students. additional community bathrooms and showers will be available on each floor.

other amenities include a large kitchen and study area on each floor and a free laundry room. The new hall, conveniently located near the Mcnary dining and service centers on the east side of campus, will be open to both first-year and returning students.


Sandy Neubaum Faculty-in-Residence — Weatherford HallCollege of Business

SAndy nEUBAUm doesn’t actually live in Weatherford hall. It just seems that way.

as the associate director for the austin entrepreneurship Program (aeP), which is housed in Weatherford, neubaum describes her role as supporting the living-learning community of 290 students. That means helping them determine what they’re excited about and putting them in the position to act on it.

“College is about finding out who you are,” she says. “It’s laying the foundation so you can spend your life loving what you do.”

Neubaumsaysentrepreneurshipisn’tjustforbusiness;it’saway of approaching your college career. “oregon state is rich withopportunities;takeadvantageofthemall,”shesays.“If you develop those skills in college, it will follow you the rest of your life.”

Most aeP students living in Weatherford are freshman, and neubaum believes living on campus gives students a strong support network, helping them build connections within the community. “Living on campus helps you find your home on campus,” she says.

as faculty-in-residence, much of neubaum’s job is simply being available — as a teacher, adviser and mentor. and she can draw from her own experience.

“I knew as soon as I stepped into a classroom that I wanted to teach. When I came to oregon state, I knew this was the best place for me to be,” she says. “I tell students to listen to your gut, listen to your head and follow your heart. That will serve you well throughout your life.”

Cancellation of Assignment by the Universityresidence hall and cooperative house assignments will be canceled at noon on the first day of classes at the beginning of each term if the student has not officially checked into the assigned space, unless uhds has received written notification from the student that he or she will be arriving late. reassignment of late-arriving students who do not provide written notice will be made upon their arrival at oregon state.

The university may cancel a residence hall or cooperative house contract due to conduct or community standards violations, and the student will be required to pay the contract cancellation fee. an appeal process will be provided to the student should that occur. students who have their enrollment or housing contract canceled must vacate their residence within 24 hours. In the event of a potential threat to themselves or others, students may be relocated to an alternate on-campus living space or have to vacate on-campus housing immediately.

If you decide not to attend oregon state, please inform uhds so your room reservation can be reassigned.

Residence Hall Room Change requests to change rooms will be granted as circumstances permit and as determined by uhds. no room changes will be allowed until uhds accommodates students who may have been placed in a temporary housing situation. specific information regarding the process for room changes is available online, at all uhds service centers or from your resident or co-op director. during the academic year, we offer room changes in weeks three to nine of each term.

RIGHTs anD REsponsIbILITIEsThe rationale for most uhds rules are based on the four Compelling Community Interest principles outlined in Judicious Leadership for Residence Hall Living by Forrest gathercoal (1991, Caddo gap Press). These principles apply to all students with regard to their rights and responsibilities on campus.

Compelling Community Interests

Health and Personal Safetyhealth and personal safety policies are designed to help protect students against incidents or behavior that may jeopardize the physical, mental, emotional health and/or safety of either the residential community or individual students. That requires limiting certain individual rights for the common good of the community.

Property, Property Loss or DamageWhile the oregon state campus has a relatively low incidence of crime, it is important to remember that no community can be totally risk-free from incidents that cause property loss and damage. all members of the community share the responsibility to care for and protect both common and personal property.

Serious Disruption of the Educational EnvironmentFor a large number of people to live together successfully, each member of the community has a responsibility to respect the needs and rights of others. rules are established and enforced to support a successful campus living environment, as well as for the efficient, effective operation of residence halls, cooperative houses and family housing units. Please remember that you are responsible not only for your own behavior, but also for the behavior of your guests. You and your guests must abide by the community standards to protect your rights, as well as the rights of others, to make on-campus living a positive aspect of your college experience.

Legitimate Educational PurposeIt’s common to ask in student government, staff training and certain student conduct situations, “Why are you here?” generally, the answer is, “to get a degree.” Based on this fundamental premise, anything not

directly or indirectly contributing to the accomplishment of this goal goes against the legitimate educational purpose of the university and of the housing system. uhds policies and programs are designed to support the university’s educational mission.
