The Live-in Staff Symposium recognizes the unique and invaluable role that the most student-facing staff hold in a housing department. This virtual event provides a dedicated space for education and dialogue around topics of interest for professionals who live and work on their campuses. Carefully curated speakers highlight an agenda that helps staff excel in these roles while also empowering them to find balance and create boundaries in their work-life space.
