4 MORE DAYS TO FILL OUT THE RESIDENTIAL FEEDBACK SURVEY


Throughout last Fall term, our dedicated residential staff along with the Residence Hall Association (RHA) worked tirelessly to create a vibrant, engaging and safe living experience for each of you. From the Welcome Back BBQ at the beginning of September to weekly community engagement initiatives, we hope that you’ve enjoyed the various opportunities aimed at fostering a sense of belonging and connection within our on-campus community.  


Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we are eager to hear about your experiences from the Fall semester. To gather your thoughts, we kindly request you participate in a brief survey that will help us identify areas of improvement and tailor our offerings to better suit your needs. Your input will help shape the upcoming Spring semester’s initiatives, and we are committed to creating an environment that aligns with your expectations. 


Please take a few moments to complete the survey by Friday, January 17th to give us time to review and implement residential initiatives.

Thank you, once again, for being an integral part of our on-campus community. We hope you have a lovely week ahead!

Campus Living Tips of the Week

Are you having outlet/power issues in your room?



Make sure to submit a work order if outlets are not working or if you are having power issues in your residence hall room. Facilities will work as quickly as possible ensure that power to outlets is restored. Questions? Contact Facilities at facilities@stmarys-ca.edu.

Keep Your Space Clean: Don't Forget to Take Out Your Room Trash!

Here are a few tips to make it easier:

  1. Set a Schedule: Designate a specific day and time each week for trash removal. This way, you won't forget, and it becomes a part of your routine.
  2. Use a Trash Can Liner: Make sure you use a liner in your trash can to prevent spills and make it easier to dispose of the garbage.
  3. Recycle: Separate recyclables from regular waste and use recycling bins if provided. This helps reduce waste and benefits the environment.
  4. Seal the Bag: Before taking it out, be sure to tie the trash bag tightly to prevent any leaks.
