The Residence Halls Association (RHA) serves as the official voice of the residential community. Sometimes we release formal statements to inform and engage our residents and the student body. These communications often serve as calls to action, directed toward the university on behalf of our constituents.
Currently, we are in the process of gathering and archiving historical press releases, including those that remain relevant today. These documents are made available here as part of our commitment to transparency, continuity, and preserving our organizational history.
