Residential Education at Hiram College
The Office of Residential, Citizenship and Commuter Education at Hiram aims to supplement as well as complement the classroom experience of each student. A goal of our Residential, Citizenship and Commuter Education program is to motivate students to become interested in the process of their own education and development.
In the classroom, the professor is concerned with the development of the intellect. In the residence hall, we are concerned with the total effectiveness of individuals in dealing with all aspects of their environment. The residence hall staff is concerned with the students' ability to relate to others, solve problems, make decisions and compromises, and above all, to better understand who they are, through increased awareness of their interests, aptitudes, abilities, and limitations.
The staff of each residential area is responsible for providing activities and programs that will enhance the educational process and provide interesting and entertaining opportunities for students to enjoy themselves. Examples of these kinds of activities include trips to Cleveland and Akron for museums and professional sporting events, guest lecturers, movie nights and residence hall parties.
