STUDENT LIFE
One of the objectives of the Virginia Intermont program is to provide a living and
learning atmosphere in which there are opportunities for personal and social
growth through close association among faculty, staff, and students, through
activities of self-government, through the exercise of choice in an atmosphere
of concern, and through involvement in a variety of planned activities and
organizations.
RESIDENCE HALLS
Each major residence unit is staffed with a Head Resident Assistant and one or
more student residence assistants. Women and men are housed in Intermont,
Main, and West Halls. Each residence hall is coed by floor. Some off campus
apartments and houses are also available.
Most rooms accommodate two students; however, triple rooms are available at
a reduced rate and single rooms are available for an extra charge when space is
available. Each student is provided with a bed, a desk, a chest of drawers, and
closet space. Students provide their own draperies and linen. Laundry rooms
furnished with washers and dryers are available on campus. Cable TV and Internet
connections are provided in each room.
DINING HALL
A central dining facility is located in West Hall. Short order service is provided in
Café Intermont, the Student Center snack bar.
SPIRITUAL LIFE
Virginia Intermont College demonstrates its commitment to the spiritual and
moral development of the student body by providing spiritual organizations and
activities. Participation in spiritual services is voluntary.
The Chaplain’s office located on first floor of Main Hall (276/466-7919) promotes
and supports spiritual development, theological reflection, religious tolerance
and social awareness among the campus community.
Students are invited to visit the Chaplain to:
• Discuss matters related to spirituality, religion, and theology
• Receive personal counseling and support
• Receive grief counseling
• Chat about life
