Paradise Neighborhood

Vibrant. Welcoming. Celebratory. Home. The houses of the Paradise Neighborhood include some of the largest on campus, but each house remains committed to creating a healthy and supportive community. Students from across campus come to eat in the friendly dining rooms and attend campus events such as Celebration! Weekly teas and study breaks bring house members together to laugh and enjoy good company. Our spacious, plush living rooms and ample study spaces comfortably accommodate houses ranging from 80 to 100 residents.

Area Director

Area directors are residence life professional staff members responsible for the management of a residential neighborhood. Area directors are here to support students in their neighborhood at every level—they supervise the student staff members of each house, they’re available for individual students to talk to about any problems they may be facing, and are a general resource to house communities within the neighborhood.

Stop by and say hello—get to know your area director!
