After considerable thought and discussion, KPC’s Kenai River Campus has decided that the Residence Hall will go on a one-year hiatus, beginning June 30, 2020, to determine how the campus can move forward in the future.

Resident Advisors
Resident Advisors (RA) are paraprofessional Residence Life Staff Members and KRC students
who are trained to maintain a safe, healthy and engaging residential community for
residents in Student Housing at KRC. Each RA is assigned to a smaller sub-community
within the larger housing complex where they live and get to know all of the residents
in that area. RAs provide 24-hour on-call assistance year-round for Student Housing.
They receive extensive training in crisis response, conflict mediation, policy enforcement
and programming. Residents are expected to comply with requests and directives of
the RA staff and to readily utilize them to address safety concerns, disruptive behaviors
and general personal and community needs. Share ideas for activities with your RA
and be sure to approach him or her for assistance as needed. The RA on duty can always
be reached by calling the RA cell phone at 262-0256.

Front Desk Assistants (DA) are student employees that live in the residence hall and man the front desk from 8 A.M. to 8 P.M. It is their responsibility to answer phone calls, sort students' mail to their appropriate mailboxes, answer general questions, check-out items to residents, and assist professional residence life staff in day to day operations.
Residence Life Student Facility Crew
