Sprague, Wyoming Seminary’s fourth president, was associated with the school for 70 years. For 54 of those years, he served as president of the school. A student leadership program honoring Sprague as one of the school’s most devoted leaders was established in 1993. Levi Sprague Fellows are chosen annually for their leadership roles in the academic,athletic, social and extracurricular life at Sem. Students chosen are honored with a scholarship for full room and board during their senior year. The 2011-12 Levi Sprague Fellows are: Sean Banul Renata O’Donnell Bethany Brody Alisa Oh Dom Malone Kristian Stefanides Dormitory Resident Assistants Resident assistants are the primary student leaders in the boarding community, with whom the dormitory faculty have entrusted important responsibilities. They serve as positive role models for other students, adhering to all school policies and upholding adherence to all rules and policies. They serve as a liaison between students and faculty, developing positive relations between these two groups in the boarding community. If students are in academic or personal difficulty, RAs help them get the attention they need by referring them to the school counselor, nurse or a faculty member. They help monitor study halls, lounges, dormitory floors and entrances, and help with evening check-in and other dormitory duties. RAs also help with fall orientation.

The student is responsible for his/her guest. If meals are to be taken in the dining room, this must be cleared with a representative of the Director of Residential Life’s office at least 48-hours in advance. Guests are permitted on weekends, but not on weekdays unless special conditions exist. Standard of Dress The standard of dress for the academic day is outlined in detail on pages 29 - 30. Parents and students should read that section carefully to plan students’ wardrobes. Students may dress more informally during free time and for cafeteria-style meals except for lunch on school days. (Shirts worn in the dining hall must have sleeves.) When in the dormitory, students may wear casual clothes. To avoid embarrassment, students should be attired decently whenever outside their rooms. Dining Room and Meals Attendance is required at all meals with the exception of breakfast on Saturday and Sunday unless the student has been excused by the Director of Residential Life or appropriate Class Dean. Please note that shirts and shoes must be worn in the dining room and kitchen at all times, in keeping with health regulations. Promptness is expected at all family-style dinners. Table assignments will be posted for family-style meals. All boarding students are expected to share in performing “waiting duties” at the family-style meals. Details on expectations and procedures for waiters will be given at the beginning of the school year. Students are not permitted to remove dishes, silverware, glasses or other equipment without permission from the dining room supervisor. Boarding Student Allowance Accounts Parents of boarding students may deposit spending money in an allowance account with the Business Office.
