For the thousands of students who’ve called it home, there’s no place quite like College Lodge.

This sentiment certainly holds true for Kristen Faretra Bowden ’95, who lived in College Lodge for four of her five years as a CofC student. That’s why she and her husband Greg created the 402 Scholarship (named after Kristen's old room number) in celebration of College Lodge. It is the College's first and only residential scholarship.

Residence Life is pleased to announce this year's 402 Scholarship recipient is TaDora Isaacs, a Marine Biology major at the College!

TaDora had the following to say about her decision to return to Lodge: "I have found from personal experience, along with the experiences of my friends who live in different dorms, that Lodge is more close-knit than other dorms. Our RA's reach out and are willing to hang out with us here at lodge, and that is valuable to me especially when I have my down days. Also, I have had plenty of pleasant interactions on the elevator including finding my roommate for next year. I chose the 6th floor again because of the stellar view of the sunset. I didn't notice last year because I was on the 4th floor, but if your room is high and on the left side of the building you can see a scenic view of the sunset and street that is very calming. It is the highlight of my day."

Congratulations, TaDora! We'll catch you on the 6th floor at sunset this Fall 🌞

We're still beaming with pride after this weekend's commencement! Residence Life is proud to offer each senior RA a maroon graduation cord designed with a strand of gold intertwined. This cord is an indicator of excellence specific to CofC ResLife that is placed around the students' neck to distinguish them as prestigious student leaders at graduation. The cord represents the honorable commitment our RAs make, particularly during their senior year, to not only serve as an around-the-clock resource for residential students, but also the large responsibility that comes with being an upperclassman leader within the residence life staff.

We also award our graduating desk assistants (DAs) with a commemorative pin to identify them as distinguished ResLife support staff. Our DAs are the glue that holds our first year communities together given their commitment to ensuring our students always have a knowledgeable and friendly resource at their front desk.

Congratulations, again, to the Class of 2021! We are proud to call you 🎓

We’re so proud of our graduating seniors! Being a Resident Assistant during any year is challenging and requires impeccable time management and leadership skills. This can be especially difficult during your senior year, when students are completing their degrees and making plans for their future careers. With a pandemic thrown in the mix, this year’s class has proven themselves as some of the most resilient leaders our department has ever seen. We are so thankful for our grads’ commitment to our residential communities this year and wish them the best of luck with all of their future endeavors.
