| University Housing
Hello everyone, I am Josh Davis and will be a Resident Advisor (RA) starting this upcoming Fall – not sure exactly which residence hall yet (long story) but will find out by Monday, February 4. Next year will be my 2nd year at State and I am younger than most of the other RAs. I basically wanted to start a thread and first ask where will everyone be staying (or applying to stay if still in process) for the upcoming school year?
Also, I was wondering what are some of the expectations or concerns that you all may have for your housing experience here at State, and what are some suggestions for creative programs that RAs such as myself can do to help ease that transition?
Congrats to all of the new members of the Pack!

Hey y'all... I will be an RA in one of the Quad buildings in the University Honors Village. Anyone else like to share where they will be (or hopefully be) staying?

What would you say is the best Residence hall? I like the hall style of Alexander, but I wouldn't want to stay in that building.

Ddog, Owen is for freshman enrolling in the First Year College program. You will be enrolling in CHASS, right? If so then I don't believe you would be eligible for Owen. You might be interested in one of the Tri-Towers (right beside Owen).

I think that there are only a few residence halls that are for certain groups e.g. owen FYC, Alexander Foreign Students, Turlington Arts, and then the others like Lee, Sullivan, Bragaw are for anyone.

wolfpack12 is right. I would also stay away from Wood and Avent Ferry (Don't be lured in by the "bathroom attached to every room" in Avent Ferry. It used to be a hotel) if possible. They are a long way from classroom buildings.
