Residence Life
Living On Campus
Living in a residence hall is a new and valuable experience for many students, teaching cooperation, consideration, and compromise. Residential Education supports academic success and personal growth by fostering a diverse, inclusive, and fun campus community.
Residential Education Staff
The residence hall staff includes the Director of Student Life, the Residence Life Coordinator, and a team of Resident Assistants (RAs) who work to support the needs of the residential students. The Coordinator is a full-time professional staff member who lives in the residence hall and is responsible for overseeing the community within the hall and its day-to-day operations. The RAs are paraprofessional (student) staff members who are each assigned to a specific floor. They are a resource for their residents and maintain a vibrant and safe community within the residence hall.
Community Living & Student Conduct
We have designed the residential program at UMaine Machias to provide a safe and comfortable environment where students may live, study, socialize, learn, and grow within a community of peers. Each resident is responsible for their own conduct and that conduct should not interfere with the rights of others. The Residential Education staff is here to ensure that the rights of residents and the property of the university are not abused.
