Programs and activities in the residence halls are designed to help students meet each other and create opportunities for the exchange of divergent views and beliefs. The key to a successful residential experience is the willingness to get involved. You can have an impact on the direction of your residence hall and MassArt through your participation in activities. We hope that you make the most of this opportunity by accepting the challenge and responsibility of being an active and concerned resident.
