Autumn
Dietrich, sophomore sociology major, was chosen to participate in the STARS
College in Rhode Island in summer 2017. STARS
College is a three-day pre-conference of the Association of College and
University Residence Halls, International. Autumn was also chosen as president of the year by the Central
Atlantic Affiliate for College and University Residence Halls last fall.
STARS College is a three-day experience for undergraduate students interested
in learning about the student affairs and campus housing professions. STARS
College offers large group presentations, interactive activities, role play
situations, self-evaluation, and small mentoring groups to educate participants
about what a career in campus housing offers.
The application process is highly competitive, with only 40–65 students from
across the U.S. being chosen each year.
Autumn serves as the president of the IUP Residence Hall Association, a member
of the National Residence Hall Honorary, and a community assistant for the
Honors Community. We in the Office of Housing, Residential Living,
and Dining are very happy for her and are looking forward to her continued
contributions.
