House/Community Meetings

Your Community Advisor (CA) will host a house meeting at the beginning of each semester, and your attendance will be expected at both of these important meetings. You will receive essential community information and get to know your neighbors and community members during these events. Please speak to your CA before your house meeting should you have a conflicting appointment or meeting.
