“A Wildcat Community: Your Home Away From Home” - Fort Valley ...

MESSAGE FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF STUDENT AFFAIRS
WELCOME
Dear Resident,
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for including campus housing
as part of your University experience and we would like to welcome you to The Fort Valley
State University, “A Wildcat Community, Your Home Away from Home”! Living in a
residence hall is an experience in group living. You will find many opportunities for social,
educational, and cultural development in your hall. Making the most of these opportunities
will take an effort on your part. We hope that you will take advantage of opportunities to
make your residence hall experience an important part of your growth at The Fort Valley
State University.
You will quickly learn that living in a residential community requires that you be
aware of and sensitive to the needs of your fellow residents. This may necessitate
adjustments in your personal habits and attitudes. As a member of the residential hall
community, you will have responsibilities to create a living environment that contributes to
the attainment of academic goals.
One of your first responsibilities as a resident is to read and become familiar with
the information in the handbook. If you need further clarification on any item, please
contact a Residential Life staff member. The Residential Life staff is eager to serve you in
making the residence halls a comfortable place in which to live. We wish you much success
in the upcoming year.
Sincerely,
Fort Valley State University Department of Student Affairs
