We are so glad you have chosen to make the residence halls your home while at Tech.
We hope to help YOU make this an exciting and productive year. The convenience of
living on campus affords you the opportunity to develop a sense of community in your
residence halls and to pursue your academic endeavors. You have the opportunity to
be involved in all aspects of college life and to get to know your fellow Miners.
May you make lifelong friends while here. You also have access to many college activities and events readily available. Venture
out into the campus community. Attend service events and activities that are designed
and planned with you in mind. Develop your leadership skills by getting involved with
campus opportunities. Let us know if you have any questions.
We are looking forward to a great year and our entire staff is excited for you to
be here.

Can I stay on campus over breaks? What halls close during semester break?
All Residence Halls Close during semester breaks. This includes Alta, Baca, Driscoll,
Presidents, South, Torres and West. If you're still in need of housing over the break,
contact Residential Life for assistance. Desert Willow and Mountain Springs have
different agreements and will be open over breaks.
What if I don’t get along with my roommate?
Contact your RA to request roommate mediation. RAs are trained in conflict mediation,
and we generally find that an unbiased third party can help students come up with
solutions that they may not have discovered on their own. In more challenging situations,
a series of mediations may be necessary. We encourage you to communicate with your
RA if you feel that further intervention is needed.
