Academic Role Models

(ARMs)

There are eight Academic Role Models (ARMs) on campus whose primary goal is to foster an educational climate in the residential halls. They provide learning opportunities, study skills information, and act as an academic resource for students.

• Each ARM holds weekly office hours in their assigned area to maintain visibility among residents and best serve as an advocate for academic success.
• They are available to help with: test taking skills, note taking tips, time management, writing and reading skills, general college questions and concerns.
