Mission and Goals of UW-Marathon County's Residence Life
Mission
UW-Marathon County's residence life program exists to promote the unique mission and goals of the UW Colleges. It aspires to provide affordable housing services to students seeking to complete their first two years of liberal arts general education as well as students attending Northcentral Technical College. Seeking to create an environment that is conducive to the educational success of it's students, UW-Marathon County Residence Life offers programs that are social, educational, diverse, and civic in nature.
Goals
- To ensure the safety and well-being of those who reside in Marathon Hall.
- To foster a diverse environment encouraging respect of all people with varying personalities, disabilities, abilities, economic backgrounds, cultures, etc.; recognizing that even if we differ in outward appearances, we all share many of the same hopes, values, interests, and dreams.
- Realizing that education happens outside the classroom as much as inside, we hope to compliment the educational experience through the programs we provide, the rules and policies we implement, and the relationships we build.
- Understanding that college can be an overwhelming experience, we hope to provide a comfortable environment in which to learn, play, and socialize, as well achieve a balance between all areas of life.
