The Residence Life program at Marymount Manhattan College is committed to the overall growth, development and education of its residents. Our primary goal is to provide a safe, secure, and comfortable educational environment while providing residents the opportunities to become involved, exercise their leadership skills, and be part of a residential community. We seek to promote individual growth by helping residents challenge their values and attitudes and develop qualities of respect for others, intellectual curiosity, social responsibility, cultural awareness, self-discipline, independent judgment, and personal responsibility.

Each resident has a Resident Advisor (RA). The RAs are students who serve as community builders, campus resources, and can assist residents in managing residence hall issues and navigating life at MMC. Residence Directors (RDs), professional staff members who live in the residence halls, are also available to assist students during office hours. The RDs have an on-call rotation, and may be contacted by an RA should a serious situation arise.

HOW TO CONTACT ON-DUTY STAFF

Residents will be provided the Resident Advisor (RA) duty phone number for their assigned hall. This number will reach the on-duty RA from 8:30 pm to 7:30 am during the week and 24 hours over the weekends and holidays. In an emergency, if unable to reach the on-call RA, residents should contact the security staff at the front desk of the building and/or call 911.
