If you’re a returning Smith student, you may have noticed some changes in the college’s Residence Life system. As students were informed in an email on August 26, the ResLife department has extensively restructured its staff and hierarchies in order to “better meet the needs of students and the communities they live in.” This notably involves a restructuring of student staff.

Additionally, the “areas of campus” have been shuffled and transformed into four “neighborhoods,” named for notable Smith features.
