Residential Life and Housing: A Safe Return to Campus
Make Adelphi your “home away from home.” Our integrated academic and co-curricular educational environment helps all our residents grow intellectually and socially —with safety procedures that put wellness first.
With careful planning led by public health experts, Adelphi’s residence halls are ready to open and welcome students. With reduced capacity, enhanced cleaning, touchless temperature scanners, mask-wearing protocols and other wellness measures, we can house students in seven clean and safe residence halls. All About Life in an Adelphi Residence Hall
Each residence hall is supervised by a full-time, professional Assistant Director (AD) who is committed professionally and personally to the concept of the residence hall as a center of learning. The AD lives and works in the hall throughout the year and supervises a staff of trained graduate and undergraduate resident assistants (RAs).
In addition, each building has hall attendants who confirm each resident is wearing their mask and has completed their daily AU2Go Health Check before they may enter the building during evening and late-night hours.
Every year, the residents of each building elect a hall council. Through the Resident Student Association, these hall councils manage an activities budget, provide social and educational programs for residents, suggest additional policies that complement those established by the University and communicate student concerns to the Office of Residential Life and Housing.
