The Department of Residential Life at Quinnipiac University is committed to providing students a supportive and inclusive living environment that enriches their educational experience. We challenge and support our students as they develop into responsible members of the community.

The department is guided by these core values:

• Community: encouraging students to become positive and active members of the campus, local and global communities.
• Diversity: challenging students to explore, understand and accept the unique differences that each member brings to the community.
• Service: promoting student involvement in activities that serve the community while enhancing their growth and development.
• Responsibility: striving to help students make responsible decisions and understand how their choices impact themselves and others.
