Programming
The Residence Life team provides students with programming designed to create community and provide support for academic and life goals. The Resident Assistant (RA) team, comprised of 62 RAs, supports each floor or area of our residence halls via resources and programming. The RA team provides one Purpose program a month that residents can attend on their floor to create community. The RA team also provides 2–3 community-wide programs per month for the entire residence hall community to come together and have a dedicated event.

As part of our engagement and programming strategy the Office of Residence Life is introducing engagement opportunities called Residence Life Signature Events. This year, there are several Signature Events that the entire residential and NSU community can attend.
