The Office of Residential Life at Boston College seeks to foster an inclusive residential environment that complements the academic mission of the University.
This is accomplished by:
- Developing living and learning communities within our residence halls by creating a sense of community and personal responsibility, while promoting a sense of mutual respect among students living together.
- Offering programs and leadership opportunities designed to promote responsible decision making and personal accountability.
- Providing educational, developmental, diversity, social and spiritual support and programs to our students.
- Providing safe, secure and well-maintained residence halls.
- Recruiting and selecting a competent staff that reflects the cultural and personal diversity of the resident student body.
- Managing responsible and accountable fiscal and administrative policies and services.
In the formation of our students, through the accomplishment of these goals, the Office of Residential Life complements the nature of Boston College as a University in the Jesuit and Catholic tradition.
