The Allen House Team

Each of the six House Communities is co-lead by a live-in Residential Education professional staff member, a House Professor who lives nearby, and a Program Coordinator. In addition, each House Community leadership team consists of four Resident Fellows (RFs) and a team of Undergraduate Advisors (UGAs). Student leadership opportunities also exist through the House Executive Council.

Resident Fellows

Resident Fellows serve on the House leadership teams and collaborate with others to offer House-wide programming opportunities that focus on community building or intellectual engagement. They provide an opportunity to bridge the connection among undergraduate and graduate students through in-house mentoring.
