The staff at the Vista Place has been selected as the next group to receive the Office of Residence Life Staff Spotlight.
The Resident Director Appreciation and Recognition committee developed this honor as a way to recognize everyone on the staff for their dedication and hard work.
Additionally, the recognition program allows residents of the hall and the campus community to get to know their leaders.
Here is some information about each member of the staff:
