Involvement

RHA in the Community

The Residence Hall Association is always looking for ways to increase involvement, create student leadership opportunities, and build an integrated housing community. Through sponsorships, programs, and departmental collaboration, RHA works to help the housing community be successful.

Why Participate in RHA?

RHA is a wonderful opportunity to make an impact on your community. As a resident, you are a participating member of the student government of University Housing, a member with privileges and responsibilities. The extent to which the members of the hall/floor can plan and carry out activities and succeed as an organization depends upon the cooperation of these members. There is a president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, community gardener, and community representatives who together comprise the Residence Hall Association.

General Assembly Meetings

RHA meetings are held weekly on MONDAYS at 5pm in Montgomery Court Lounge. All residents are urged to attend and participate. RHA not only provides leadership opportunities for students, but it also benefits the entire campus by providing programming and shaping housing policies. In addition, by serving as a RHA member, residents may also have the opportunity to serve on University Auxillary committees that value resident input.

Who to Contact

To get involved, please contact rha@pdx.edu or Matt Lewis (Advisor) at matlewis@pdx.edu. Concerns about residence hall usage, policies, and improvements are channeled to University Housing. To voice such concerns, questions, or suggestions, RHA encourages you to speak with us and get active!
