And the October OTM goes to...

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.

12 Of The Month nominations were submitted during the month of October. Of those, 7 were selected as Campus Winners, and 1 went on to be the regional winner for GLACURH.
