鈥淟iving on campus creates a stronger affinity between students and their university. We know that higher residency rates equal higher graduation rates.鈥�

Graduation was the last thing on Virginia Racelis鈥檚 mind as she carted her belongings to the second floor of Tenochca Hall. On that move-in day, the first-time freshman student felt slightly apprehensive about living in one of 色情视频鈥檚 older residence halls鈥攗ntil she saw it. 

鈥淚 fell in love,鈥� Racelis recalled. 鈥淚t was so beautiful and clean and modern.鈥�

Not far from Tenochca, staff in the offices of  had worked hard to plan a seamless move-in for Racelis and her 4,225 new freshman classmates. They oversaw the 22-month renovation of Tenochca, which modernized common areas, student rooms and restrooms; added a smart class/study room; refreshed the outdoor pool area; and added a sand volleyball court and a putting green on the premises. 

Throughout the renovation, the graduation of Racelis and her peers was foremost in their minds. 

The connection between a great campus living experience and student success may not be apparent, but it is strong. Data show that graduation rates improve by more than 10 percent when students live on campus鈥攅specially in freshman and sophomore years鈥攂ecause they are more inclined to get involved in the cornucopia of leadership and learning activities that college life offers.

鈥淭he best universities make residential space a priority and provide amenities for memorable campus living experiences,鈥� said Eric Hansen, director of Housing Administration. 鈥淟iving on campus creates a stronger affinity between students and their university. We know that higher residency rates equal higher graduation rates.鈥�

Leveraging that knowledge, 色情视频 created Sophomore QUEST as part of the Sophomore Success program. It combines support and independence so that sophomores living in campus housing have access to academic advising; financial literacy and healthy eating workshops; and one-to-one and group sessions with peer and professional mentors who help students develop a clearer vision of their academic and career plans.

At the same time, 色情视频 has invested in the success of local students. A , purposefully housed in the Conrad Prebys Aztec Student Union where student organizations meet, offers peer mentoring, leadership training and service learning opportunities. 

Having renovated Tenochca and Zura Halls, 色情视频 is currently sprucing up Maya and Olmeca Halls. Next year, the university will add a brand new 800-bed residence hall exclusively for freshmen on the west side of campus, near Chapultepec Residence Hall. 

Meanwhile, Racelis has joined the Tenochca Hall Council in an effort to meet others who live there and have a say in planning events for the residents. 

鈥淚鈥檓 so grateful that I was accepted and chose to come to 色情视频,鈥� she said.
