What is an Area Coordinator (AC)?

An Area Coordinator (AC) is an employee of Keystone College, holds at least a bachelor’s degree, and lives year-round in an apartment in one of the larger residence halls on campus (Moffat Hall, Commons Hall, or Frear/Reynolds Hall.) AC’s hold regular office hours during the week in order to be available to assist our students with any concerns. Area Coordinators supervise and assist the Resident Assistance and Senior Residence Assistance, and oversee all aspects of the residence halls including but not limited to:

What is a Senior Resident Assistant (SRA)?

Senior Resident Assistants (SRA) are upperclassmen who work for the College in the role of para-professional staff members. SRAs report to the Area Coordinators (AC) and assist them in addressing any building, safety, or student issues. The Senior Resident Assistants serve as role models and help Resident Assistants plan and facilitate fun activities and programs, enforce college policies, build community, and oversee major issues within the residence halls. SRA’s have been in your shoes before!

What is a Resident Assistant (RA)?

Resident Assistants (RA) are student leaders who help to develop a positive and safe living environment and coordinate educational programs and fun activities that enhance the lives of the resident students living on-campus.

RAs are upperclassmen and para-professional staff members that live on student floors or in suites of each residence hall, and are on duty every night to monitor the safety and security of each building. They are the front line for answering questions, helping others, enforcing college policies, building community, and planning programs in the residence halls.

What is a micro-fridge?

A micro-fridge is a refrigerator/microwave combo. Personal refrigerators and microwaves are not permitted in the residence halls unless purchased/rented through the MicroFridge company, exclusive distributor for Keystone College.

What is the Student Handbook?

The Student Handbook is a document to help you navigate your way through life at Keystone College. It discusses the Student Code of Conduct and gives an overview of some of the important policies regarding campus life. Please review this document to learn important information such as the drug/alcohol policy and the residence hall visitation policy, just to name few.

Can I bring a pet?

Keystone offers a pet friendly residence hall as a housing option beginning in the fall 2024 semester. Tewksbury Hall has been designated as a “pet friendly residence” for students residing there. The new designation applies not only to pets, usually dogs, classified as emotional support animals, but also to other traditional, non-emotional support pets as well. The four-story residence hall has two floors of male residents and two floors of female residents.
