Letter from the Director

Dear Resident Student, 

On behalf of Framingham State College and the Office of Residence Life and Housing staff, I would like to welcome you as a member of the 2007-2008 residence hall community. 

The College, in collaboration with the Massachusetts State College Building Authority, has invested a great deal of time and money in residence hall renovations and improvements. These upgrades are for your benefit as well as for the benefit of future students. We ask, and expect, that members of the community will exercise care in the treatment of the residence halls. 

Your involvement in the College and residence hall community can greatly enhance your college experience.  The Residence Life staff strives to facilitate a community environment which fosters student learning and personal development, and values diversity.  The responsibility for creating positive living and learning environments, however, must be shared by all residents.  Further, these goals require residents to be open to living cooperatively and working actively to cultivate a climate conducive to academic pursuit and respect for all.  We look forward to your support and participation.  

This guide is provided so that you may become familiar with the policies, procedures, and information relative to residential life at Framingham State College.  Please read this guide carefully and keep it on hand for easy reference. 

We look forward to a successful year! 

Sincerely,
Glenn A. Cochran
Associate Dean of Student Affairs/Director of Residence Life
