True membership in a community is complex and has depth. It is about honestly understanding someone different from you. It is about peer accountability. It is about confronting inappropriate actions and voicing your concerns for someone's well-being. It is about being able to have disagreements and everyone walking away having learned something. It is about a "place" where people can be who they are, not who they think they "should" be. The event/programs that we have in our community are based on trying to help you connect with others in the community and explore who you are and how you connect with others. To this end, Housing & Residential Life focuses our work on five Learning Outcomes:

• Community Engagement

• Moral and Ethical Awareness

• Multicultural Competence

• Academic Engagement and Intellectual Inquiry

• Health, Well-being, and Self-management
