Successful Community Life in Campus Apartments
Dates:
1/21/08 - 2/8/08
Instructor:
Rena Buchan, Assistant Director of Housing for Graduate and Family Housing; & Mohammad Hussain, Residence Life Coordinator in Graduate and Family Housing; University of Florida
Abstract:
The diversity in the students who choose on-campus apartment-style housing requires programs to be flexible and more diverse than ever. On many campuses, the apartments serve as home to single undergraduate and graduate students as well as students with families. Understanding who the community members are, how the community operates, and what involvement looks like in a diverse community will drive this exploration into apartment-style student housing. Sharing best practices will lead to identifying next steps to move programs in that direction.

Thomas Ellett, President, Thomas Ellett & Partners, Inc. & Associate Vice President for Student Affairs, New York University; & John Kazlauskas, Community Development Educator, New York University
Abstract:
So you've been working in Student Affairs for a number of years and are starting to ask yourself the question: "What's next?" Or maybe you're just beginning your professional journey, and want to think about how you can make the most of the position you're in. More than likely you are supervising staff in transition. If any of these issues apply, this course is for you. We will use our professional competencies as a starting place for the course and build from there to think about our goals. The facilitators will help you think about how many skills that you have acquired (or hope to acquire) and how you can parlay them into your next professional position. From there, we will examine how to turn our big dreams into reality, determining clear steps one can take towards reaching our goals while avoiding or breaking through the barriers that stand in our way. This is a great session for those who are thinking about their careers, thinking about a career transition, or those who supervise staff who may be in transition.
