Join a Residence Committee!

Our four committees are made up of students – guided by RAs and RLMs – looking to make a difference in their community through events and relationship-building.

Academics Committee

For students who love organizing targeted study nights, exam stressbusters, and events where their peers can learn about different majors, academic opportunities, and resources on campus.

Athletics Committee

For students with a love for sports! They organize residence-wide sports tournaments, and find low-key ways to get residents involved in athletics like residence nights at the gym and viewing parties for large sporting events.

Appeals Committee

This committee handles any appeals related to the Residence Standards Process. When a resident submits an appeal following an incident, this committee meets to hear the appeal and submits recommendations for an outcome to RLMs.

Leadership Committee

For students dedicated to building community and UBCO school spirit. They run social events around holidays in Canada and the world, and look for ways to connect with students across campus.

How can I join?

Students can get involved in two ways. As a general committee member they contribute ideas, complete tasks related to events like advertising, shopping and set-up ect. Students can also be involved as a co-chair. Co-chairs work with Program Resource Advisors and Residence Life Managers to handle the logistics of running an event like task delegation and leading the committee to ensure everything that needs to be done is getting done!
