Living on campus is an integral part of the Simpson Picken Room
Experience and we're pleased to welcome you to our community. The Department of Residence Life and its staff strive to create communities in which students have opportunities to learn, grow and develop. You will have the opportunity to make lifelong friendships in your residence hall and to participate in programs and activities that will complement your academic experience.

Our aim in Residence Life at Simpson is develop individuals outside of the classroom, specially in regards to the following outcomes. 

Students living in residence at Simpson will be able to:

  - identify and utilize campus resources to enhance their personal, social, and academic development.

 - understand the rights and responsibilities of living in a communal setting and reflect on the consequences of their actions.

 - develop a better understanding of self and a broader appreciation of others through exposure to diverse perspectives.

 - recognize opportunities to develop leadership skills and learn how to use them to influence future communities.

 - handle interpersonal and intergroup conflict in a constructive manner though a challenging, but supportive, social setting.

 Through the culmination of residential experiences and within the growth of the learning outcomes above, we aim to develop students ready to be successful in a global society.

Our residence life staff is committed to making your stay in campus housing as positive and enjoyable as possible. Take advantage of the many opportunities offered to you as a resident student and make the most of your time with us on campus. We're glad you're here!!
