Overview of the Master Staff Program
Master Staff
A senior faculty member--the college master--guides the intellectual
and programmatic life of each residential college. Each college
has one associate master who shares some of the master's responsibilities.
Associate masters are appointed by the Provost on the recommendation
of the masters. Each college also has one or two assistant masters,
graduate students who assist with administrative and programming
matters, assist the college's executive board, and serve as a
liaison between the students in the college and both the faculty
master and the Office of Residential Colleges.
In addition, residence hall coordinators and
community assistants handle problem resolution, administration
of facility issues, and some programming support for the residential
colleges. Though these student employees report to the Office
of University Residential Life, they work cooperatively with the
college master staff and the student officers of the colleges
in advancing the goals of the colleges.
Council of Masters
The Council of Masters comprises the master staffs of all the
colleges, the associate provost for undergraduate education,
the coordinator of residential colleges, and the president
of the Residential College Board. The council meets periodically
throughout the academic year to develop policy and program
initiatives and to discuss issues of system-wide concern.
