The Residential Experience Team
The Residential Experience Team is responsible for the overall welfare of over 230 on-campus students. The team is dedicated to providing leadership and support on various day-to-day matters including:
- Student comfort
- Safety and security
- Health and wellness
More importantly, the team is committed to ensuring that residents feel right at home at ICMS. Each term, they organise a diverse range of events and activities to promote community building. The Residential Leadership Program aids in preparing all team members for the responsibility of being a Resident Leader.
What’s the difference between a Resident Leader and a Resident Advocate?
The primary function of a Resident Leader (RL) is to live on campus and provide an enjoyable and safe environment to all residents, while acting as student leaders and role models. RL’s are accountable for the day-to-day management of residential floors and ensuring the security of the ICMS building and its contents. Additionally, RL’s are expected to be available during peak periods, campus events and activities (including out of business hours and on weekends).
On the other hand, the role of a Resident Advocate is dedicated in the development of the “Mind, Body and Soul” program – an initiative to improve the overall wellbeing of underage students. RA’s are expected to provide assistance and support to the RL’s in conducting campus activities, as well as cover on-call shifts when required. This voluntary position is meant to provide experience and knowledge in preparation for taking on the RL role.
