The Residence Hall Association at Christopher Newport University is a nationally affiliated organization. Members have the opportunity to serve on a committee, where they will learn and practice research methods and proposal writing, marketing and digital advertising, or event planning. Our members also have the opportunity to travel across the country to many conferences, including the NACURH National Leadership Conference. This conference will be held in May, 2019, at University of Dayton in Dayton, Ohio. Members also have the ability to serve as a member of the Executive Board as early as the fall of their sophomore year. The personal and professional relationships that are developed span across the organization and the country as a whole.
In May, nine members had the opportunity to travel to Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona, for the NACURH National Leadership Conference.
In October, RHA members traveled to North Carolina State University in Raleigh, North Carolina, for the SAACURH Regional Leadership Conference.
In February, RHA at Christopher Newport hosted 120+ delegates from 14 institutions from across the state at the annual VAARH Leadership conference.
