Employment Opportunities in KU Student Housing Residence Life

A Letter from the Director

Thanks for considering employment at the University of Kansas! This web site is a starting point for you to better determine if KU is the place for you. We believe you will be interviewing us as much as we are interviewing you—and I think you'll find exciting things happening at KU housing and a world-class staff! We're a dynamic department that values student-centered work and creative, original thinking. Our organization allows for independence and autonomy in each complex. Our programming model and procedures, for example, allow for flexibility and adaptability based on meeting students' needs in a holistic manner.

A unique component of our residence life program is our staff curriculum. The curricula guide our selection and training processes, and help supervisors as they work collaboratively to develop each individual's repertoire of skills and experiences to enhance performance. Your interests, abilities, experiences, and goals all become part of the professional development plan that you establish with your supervisor. Each staff member's growth and development truly matters!

We seek talented individuals to join our team. If you are committed to serving students, believe in an educational and developmental approach to working with students, and value working alongside people who are passionate about the work they do, KU residence life might be the place for you!

We hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,

Diana Robertson, Ph.D.
Director for Student Housing
