If I had a room similar to these rooms, I would never leave! These rooms are truly like home for these students. As a higher education professional, our task is to make the day and evening activities attractive enough for students to venture our of their residence halls.
Love, love, love the summer dorm room halls and the finished product...the dorm room (residence hall) tours!
Here are the dorm room tours!
College Dorm Tour 2015 - Lilly Pulitzer Inspired Kaitlyn Mekel
One of my favorite (and very organized) bloggers - At Home With Nikki's College Dorm Room Tour
Veri Keri (another amazing vlogger)'s Dorm Room Tour
As you can see, decorating a dorm room (residence hall room) is not an easy feat. Also, it will not be an easy feat getting these students out of their residence hall rooms to attend residence hall programming (or programming for student life). Let's make our programming (and classes) appealing for these students and remain student centered this fall!
Here's my disclaimer, I am one of those odd professors who will call students and send them direct messages on Twitter if they are late to class or if they did not attend class (or turn in assignments).
In addition, this fall, I am working with an amazing group of students in a living learning community and they have a shared kitchen (which will be their common living space). Exciting opportunity for this faculty member!
Sincerely,
Dr. Jennifer T. Edwards
