September OTM Winners

SIU Residence Life has some great things going on, and we want to showcase some of our proud moments on our blog. We also hope people considering working in RA, graduate assistant, or full-time positions with our department will take a minute to learn more about the things we are doing. More information about our department, including position descriptions, application information, and graduate and full-time staff profiles can be found on our recruitment website.

20 Of The Month nominations were submitted during the month of September, 2013. Of those, 9 were selected as Campus Winners, and 2 were chosen as Regional Winners for GLACURH. 1 of these went on to be recognized as the NATIONAL Of The Month award. We're very proud of all our staff and the hard work they've done this year.
