Residence hall living is an important part of the total educational experience. The concept of group living at College of Saint Mary’s residence hall program acknowledges that the hall is not just a place to sleep and study. The hall experience, with the relationships you enjoy and the activities in which you participate, is an integral part of your total learning experience here at CSM! As a member of the residence hall community, you will encounter a variety of new experiences and opportunities. You have the freedom to learn about yourself, while you enjoy all the comforts of home. 

The residence hall staff includes two full time staff members which are the Director of Residence Life and the Assistant Director of Residence Life. One student staff member serves as the Assistant Residence Director for Lozier Tower, and there are 9 Resident Advisors (RA). Programs are planned throughout the year to build community and explore various academic, multicultural and personal growth topics. The residence hall staff will encourage you to take advantage of these opportunities, but only you can guarantee that they have value by your willingness to get involved and participate. 

Two residence halls comprise the on-campus living at CSM. Lozier Tower is our traditional residence hall (which includes both Gallagher and McAuley wings connected by the tower in between). This building includes a front desk, downstairs lounge, lounges on each floor, community bathrooms and a community kitchen. Walsh Hall is home to our Mothers Living & Learning Program, which allows single mothers to live on campus with their children while attending college. 

To keep everyone informed of upcoming events and relevant information, all residents attend all-hall gatherings led by the professional staff, and floor meetings led by their RA. Residence hall policies are given out to each student at the beginning of the year and residents are required to read and honor all college and residential policies.
