The Residence Hall Association
hopes to be a link between dorm
residents and Student Government, according
to RHA President Michael
McMullen.
The RHA, formerly known as the
Council of Presidents, was formed by
dorm presidents in fall 1982.
Mcf> ullen, founder of RHA, said he

rather than dorm presidents. Each
dorm is allowed one representative per
250 residents.
"WHEN I joined the Council of
Presidents, there was a man from
Residential Life planning the agenda
and setting goals. I felt students should
be doing this rather than having a paid
official to do it/' McMullen said.

He said he thinks RHA should work
closely with Student Government. "I
would really like to see if RHA could
work with Student Government at
large. I would like to see cooperation
between us.
"We have the task of deciding what
we feel is best for 7,000 students ?
those who live on campus ? and Student
Government shares that responsibility
with us. I would like to see us
work on some achieveable tasks.
Together we can get things done,"
McMullen said.
RHA has definite goals written into
their new constitution that should provide

residence halls and with the rest of
USC residents, McMullen said.
HE SAID he would like to see a
forum through which dorms could
meet and discuss ideas that would
benefit residents.

many activities this year and plans to
sponsor more, including co-sponsoring

Mayfest April 30. Also, dorm elections
were sponsored by RHA. In the past,
each dorm decided the day their elections
would be held, but this year
McMullen said RHA felt that bv hav
ing them all on one day, more publicity
would be generated and more students
would vote.
RHA is funded by a 1 percent tax on
dorm government fees, according to
McMullen.
Though representatives are not paid,
RHA is considering it for future years,
he said. He said he hopes by paying
representatives, more qualified
students may seek offices.
McMullen said their funds are used
to promote RHA's goals and activities.
One of RHA's major problems is
lack of publicity," McMullen said.
"Organizing has taken a long time, but
once we get things settled, you're going
to see a lot of action next year from us.
"I realize there are a lot of apathetic
people, but there are some who would
like a place to work hard. I want this to
be that place."
