For more information, please go to: http://www.sbc.edu/co-curricular or call 434.381.6134. Residence Life Residence Life Staff Annie Jones, Director of Residence Life is charged with residence life initiatives and community development, including program implementation, working with students and their housing assignments and overseeing daily operations. The student staff consists of Resident Advisors and a professional staff of Resident Coordinators (RCs). RCs reside in or near each hall, are on-call evenings and weekends, and have particular expertise and interest in providing personal support, assisting with individual or group problem solving, mediating conflicts and promoting the development of community. The RCs are: Valerie Chambers, Deborah Taylor, Debbie Thomas and Crystal Collins. Serving as a Resident Advisor (RA) is an excellent student leadership position. Their role is to be a resource to students, to build community in student residence areas and to serve as a liaison with the Office of Residence Life and aid the College in its overall operation of the residence life program. In addition, they support the Orientation program, assisting with new student transition to Sweet Briar. The following are general guidelines for Residence Life. Each residence area maintains, to some degree, its own identity and, upon a majority and/or unanimous vote, depending upon the issue, may establish through a community agreement additional guidelines than those described in this Handbook. For more information, please go to: http://sbc.edu/residence-life/residencelife. Terms and Conditions of College Residency Residential living is an integral part of the College community. It is an opportunity to grow, learn and share; a time to establish meaningful relationships, to learn more about oneself through daily interaction with others, and to accept the responsibilities and privileges of group living in a college ______________________________________________________ 91
