Residence Hall Association (RHA)
Residence Hall Association (RHA) is the voice of NDSU’s on-campus students. They promote living, learning, and leading, as well as many on-campus activities throughout the year.
RHA is the governing body for all the residence hall programs and is composed of two reps from each hall. It sponsors residence hall activities, hears concerns brought forth by the hall residents, and works with the Department of Residence Life to address students’ needs in the halls.
All resident hall students are encouraged to participate in RHA by attending meetings, serving on RHA committees, and participating in the leadership opportunities listed below.
RHA meets every Monday at 7pm in the Cater Hall Multi-Purpose Room.
