Campus Life Staff

Allen Clay, Jr., Associate Dean of Campus Life, supervises the Campus Life staff (ACs and CAs) while overseeing campus recreation and residential student conduct. He also supports Campus Activity Council (CAC) and EMU's CARE Team. 

Area Coordinators (ACs)

Area Coordinators are also members of the Campus Life and the university’s Student Life division. These are live-in roles, working closely with students and staff across campus. All ACs have earned at least a Bachelor's degree. They are carefully selected on the basis of their ability to provide leadership and facilitate interpersonal relationships among residents of the hall.

Some are full-time graduate students who serve as part-time staff in residence life, and many hold other positions within the university. ACs provide care and support, encourage mutual accountability to community standards, and help new students find belonging at EMU.

Community Advisors (CAs)

CAs are student para-professional members of the Campus Life staff. Each residence hall is divided into units with student Community Advisors as leaders. CAs are carefully selected and trained to serve as peer support and community leaders on campus.
