The Office Assistants and Hall Security Workers working in our residence halls are directly supervised by the ARDs. The ARD works in conjunction with the Residence Director to oversee building and facilities issues, supervise staff, and maintain keys and hall offices. Within the SYE area, there are four Assistant Residence Directors; one for each of the four buildings, Decker, New Res, Eickhoff, and Allen/Brewster/Ely.
