The Residence Hall Association is a newly-founded Student Organization with 2 primary purposes: to provide fun programming in the residence halls, and to provide funds to improve the living community of the halls!

RHA meets every Tuesday at 6:30-7pm in Forum 4! Meetings consist of planning events, discussing residence hall issues, and voting on fund request presentations from across campus! Any residential student can be a part of RHA and can attend programs!

You’ll see more and more from RHA in the future, but this semester we’ve already supported Saturday Night Shenanigans in various residence halls, An Evening with the Stars formal dance, the Liberty Rave, and a park clean up and barbecue with the Grand/Liberty Staff! RHA has plans to support Suite Week this May as well! Do you want to be a part of all this fun?! Come check out a meeting, a program, and “like” our page on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Buena-Vista-University-Residence-Hall-Association-RHA/320448784649792.

Fund Allocation Guidelines

• The form must be filled out completely and submitted on time.
• The funds must distinctly fit into one of the two approved categories.
  • Hall Improvement: Must be a necessary and reasonable addition/replacement. The advisor reserves the right to decline any request.
  • Programming: Must be open to campus. (Does not have to be advertised to campus, but the programmers cannot turn people away.)
• The primary requester (or a representative) must attend a meeting to present his/her request to the members.
• Only halls that have consistent representation in the Residence Hall Association can be approved for funds.
  • To have consistent representation, a hall must have a representative attend the meeting immediately previous to the presentation meeting, as well as the presentation meeting. Each absence resets eligibility. (The representative does not have to be the same individual, but must be a resident of the hall.)
