Dear Student:

I wish to take this special opportunity to extend to you a warm welcome to Southern University.  It gives me great pleasure to know that you have chosen Southern to further your education and it is greater pleasure to have you as an on-campus resident.  Your presence at the University is our business. Therefore, you are truly welcomed.

We are here to serve you.  We desire your learning experience to be wholesome and enjoyable without complications, hardships and inconveniences.  However, mishaps do occur.  A commitment is made to render maintenance repairs within a 24 or 48 hours period.  If you have a concern with maintenance in your area, you are advised to always communicate with your Head Resident or Resident Assistant (RA).  In case of an emergency, the concern is managed as a priority.  You are asked to contact the Office of Residential Housing if service has not been rendered.

Safety in your residence hall, on the campus and in the city of Baton Rouge is a major issue among all of us in campus housing.  Rules and regulations are written and established with you in mind.  You are asked to govern yourself accordingly.  As you move around the campus and travel within the city, you are asked to remain vigilant of your surroundings.  You are encouraged to notify someone (Head Resident, RA, University Police or friend) for assistance if you feel the circumstances are beyond normal occurrences.

Again, you are welcomed to campus housing.  I hope that your matriculation at the university becomes a total memorable and educational experience in your life.  Southern Living is Made Easy through our efforts.


Sincerely,



Marilyn M. Hill

Special Assistant to the Vice Chancellor
    for Student Affairs and Interim Director of Residential Housing
