SEAHO Report - Spring 2017 - 15

SEAHO Features
you might schedule one-on-ones with your student staff, set up consistent hall walk-throughs with your hall's
facilities supervisor. This is a great way to tailor questions specific to your building, learn from those that work
in the hall with you, and get to know them on a personal level. You can add a personal touch to the community
by posting pictures of facilities members in your hall and on the Housing website; this can help residents see
just how many wonderful staff members help make our halls feel like home. Finally, feedback loops and pieces
of appreciation can go a long way. You can do so by incorporating questions into already established surveys or
creating one specifically regarding facilities. Thank you emails, hand-written cards, breakfast gatherings, birthday recognition, and door decorations are simple, yet effective, ways to show you and residents care. Each time I
make a door decoration, or host a breakfast for the facilities team in my hall, they swing by my office to express
their genuine gratitude. We end up chatting for quite some time about work, family, personal interests, and all
topics in between. We were making our relationship that much stronger.
This is, by no means, the be-all end-all of what we can learn about current working relationships between residence life and facilities. However, it is a starting point and reminder that sometimes the partnership that needs
the most attention is right under our noses. With all this shared, I hope you take away two things from this article: that you will reflect on the current partnership with the facilities team in your community and you will begin
nurturing a relationship that is long overdue.
