Organizations
You have a variety of opportunities for leadership and involvement in your hall, floor and wing community. Many student leaders at K-State receive their first leadership experience in the residence halls. Whether you are a freshman or a senior, a returnee or a new student, you can get involved. Check into available leadership positions at your hall's front desk. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet people, build strong friendships, familiarize yourself with different organizations, improve your community, and just have fun!
Participating in KSUARH gives you an opportunity to be involved in the administration and implementation of policies for the residence halls. Representatives from each hall meet with the KSUARH executive board to address issues affecting residents. KSUARH also serves as the student voice to Housing and Dining Services administration. KSUARH sponsors campus-wide residence hall activities such as Homecoming, Winter Ball and Spring Fling. Many of these events are coordinated by student planning committees which are advised by staff members. KSUARH student delegations represent the residents of K-State residence halls at regional and national conferences. Often these conferences provide KSUARH with information regarding other residence hall programs in the country, as well as provide delegates with invaluable leadership experience.
NRHH is the only national student honorary that recognizes the top one percent of residents who have contributed outstanding service and leadership in the residence halls, while demonstrating academic excellence. New members are selected and inducted each spring.
Housing and Dining ambassadors
This group of residence hall leaders represents the department to prospective students, families and other university constituents. They are excited about the positive experience they have had in K-State's residence halls and are willing to share these experiences with others.
Hall Governing Board (HGB)
Each residence hall has a governing board that administers policies and procedures based on its hall constitution written and ratified by residents. By being a member of the HGB, you are part of the primary decision-making process that plans social, recreational and cultural activities.
Judicial Board (J-Board)
Judicial Board members help influence the residence hall community by addressing inappropriate behavior and its effect on others, while ensuring a resident's right to due process. J-Board members hold formal hearings to rule on allegations of hall policy violations.
Dining review committees
Dining review committee members influence decisions made in the dining centers so that student needs are met. Past members helped guide the development of new specialty lines. Be a part of this group as your floor representative or drop in to share your ideas either at a dining review meeting or in a personal conversation with your dining services' director.
