Section 10: Additional Resources

To help the resident assistant (RA) staff with their creative needs a resource room with a variety of craft supplies is available on the main level of Bowman-Carter Hall on the left side of the corridor past the RA office.  Because the space is locked you'll either need to make arrangements with one of the assistant directors to be let in, or stop by the Campus Safety office to check-out a key. 

In addition to the resource room RAs may find the links below beneficial throughout the year.
