The Office of Residence Life works to foster a strong community in all of the residential spaces at Puget Sound. They recognize the need to form strong connections and provide opportunities for residents to engage with their peers. All students have access to a dedicated Student Leader who is able to connect them with support and resources.
Students are encouraged to take an active role in their residential lives by joining their hall council, participating in community meetings and activities, or taking on a leadership role as a member of the Residence Life staff.
Regardless of where students live on campus, they'll find not just a place to sleep and study, but an opportunity to cultivate new friendships, focus on academics, and pursue interests and co-curricular activities. Our Residence Life team is here to support students and help build a vibrant campus community.
