Residential Life @ Pomona College |
 |
|
| |
 No college experience can match living on campus at Pomona.
The scale of the residence halls encourages students to get to know one another.
Pomona's 12 residence halls average about 120 students each.
That's large enough to bring together students with a variety of interests and
experiences, but small enough to allow residents to work as a cohesive group.
All residence halls are coed, and two-thirds of the rooms are single-occupancy.
A meal plan is part of the package, and students have varied
dining options both
at Pomona and on the neighboring campuses of the Claremont Colleges.
Pomona guarantees on-campus housing to each enrolling student, and more than 95
percent students live in campus residences. While first-year students are
required to live on campus, sophomores, juniors, and seniors also live in
the
residence halls, offering many opportunities for interaction.
 Newcomers to the residence halls get plenty of support. They are matched with
"sponsor groups" of 12 to 20 other classmates who live next door to one another.
Each group has one male and one female sophomore or junior "sponsor" who live
nearby and serve as informal organizers, guides and advisers.
Resident advisers, usually seniors, live in residence halls and serve as a
resource for their residents, addressing emergencies, enforcing policies and
coordinating activities. Those activities range from Krispy Kreme study breaks
to late-night movies to barbecues where hall residents can get to know each
other.
First-year students are assigned rooms. In the years that follow they
participate in the process of Room Draw, which is designed to give students a
chance to choose their room and whom -- if anyone -- they will room with.
