Mission Statement
Residence Life, a unit within the department of Student Life, fosters welcoming and inclusive communities, builds one-on-one relationships with each resident to encourage and support student success, and offers safe, comfortable, and convenient campus housing.
Dear Resident Students, Prospective Students and Parents,
On behalf of the Residence Life Staff at Queens University of Charlotte, I would like to extend a warm welcome to you as a member (or prospective member) of our residence community! Living on campus offers many unique opportunities, and we encourage you to take full advantage of this experience.
At Queens, we believe that a true collegiate experience involves more than attending classes and earning a diploma. On our campus, we call our buildings residence halls, not dorms, because "dorms" are places where students only sleep and study. Our residence halls are communities where learning and development occur through student-led hall government and event programming, with our staff ready to assist when needed.
Your on-campus experience will include interacting with fellow students from a variety of backgrounds, participating in shared programs and activities, and learning about yourself as an individual and as a community member. The Residence Life Staff understands the importance of assisting students' entire development, so we plan activities designed to meet your needs and interests.
We are dedicated to making your residential experience a positive one. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have and we welcome your suggestions.
Once again, WELCOME! We wish you a successful, happy, and productive year at Queens!
Thom Shepard
Director of Residence Life
