groups. Residence life staff are, of
course, gaining knowledge in new
domains and making connections
with faculty on campus. Faculty
are gaining knowledge about the
reality of students' lives and the
purpose of departments that serve
them. "They get to understand a
department on campus that students
know well. Although they usually
start with hesitation, they leave the
presentation really excited to know
and understand what residence life
does for the students and campus,
which is also a huge benefit for us,"
says Weston. Her students appreciate
that residence life staff are learning
about faculty and about the students'
experiences inside the classroom,
which creates a new shared language.
Having a shared language
is a common benefit of faculty
partnerships. The understanding
that faculty gain of the student
experience is invaluable in developing
relationships with students and
being able to support them outside
of the classroom. While many
partnerships put faculty into
roles with which they are already
comfortable, others challenge them
to work outside the normative faculty
experience. At Boston Conservatory
in Massachusetts, faculty sit on
the campus hearing board, which
adjudicates cases of behavioral and
academic policy violations. Eric
Crumrine, director of housing and
student life, hopes the experience
shapes faculty perception. "It is
my hope that faculty are able to
understand the importance of our
community and appreciate having a
role in the process. Faculty serving
on our board have added a great
voice at the table. It has helped
build a number of bridges as we all
continue to work together. I think
an unintended outcome is that the
faculty go back to talk to other faculty
members about the experience, which
strengthens everyone's confidence in
the judicial process."
Crumrine has served in his role

for less than a year but has plans
to conduct an assessment to better
understand what faculty gain from
the experience of participating in the
conduct process. He is confident,
though, that the process is improved
because of faculty. "We have been
able to refine and adjust our conduct
process based on feedback we
received from faculty at the table.
They have been extremely engaged
in the process and always willing to
serve at a hearing."

and procedures when faculty host
academic camps or conferences
on campus. Chris Stone-Sewalish,
assistant director for apartment living
and guest services at The University
of Kansas in Lawrence, manages
summer conference operations
and guest housing options. A large
portion of those conference groups
are academic in nature and are
coordinated by faculty. "We have to
work hard to educate faculty on our
administrative practices, policies, and
procedures. Because we are serving

Occasionally partnerships allow
faculty to be more immersed in
housing and residence life policies
