Parent & Family Resources

Welcome to the
University of Southern Indiana Housing and Residence Life

Dear Parents and Friends of USI Housing Residents:

Welcome to the University of Southern Indiana and to the Department of Housing and Residence Life. We are thrilled to have you as part of our family. This portion of our website, is a new initiative and was developed to give you information about both the department as well as the University. Please utilize this site as a resource for staying connected to your student and current events on campus.

The pace at USI has been exhilarating in recent years. USI has added academic programs in engineering, computer science, and special education. Enrollment has reached 10,000 students, and new buildings opened in 2003. 2006, and our newly renovated Community Center opened in the fall of 2008. The Torrington Wing of the Science and Education Center houses classrooms, laboratories, and faculty offices for the Pott College of Science and Engineering and the Bower Shurheinrich College of Education and Human Services. The David L. Rice Library is the newest and tallest building on campus. It has the size, flexibility, technology and accessibility to meet today’s education needs. And a new College of Business building is in the process of being built today.

While building new facilities, we have continued to enhance our already strong programs. We have added to our Living Learning Communities, by expanding them to two of our newest Residence Halls. Our programming model encompasses the values of the Department, the Division, and the University.

If there is information you feel would contribute to our families website, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to give your student a premiere living experience and to assure you, as families and parents, we will strive to do nothing less. We are working hard to make "USI the BEST of it's Size and Type in the Nation," please work with us.

Again, we welcome your interest in the University of Southern Indiana! Feel free to visit our website at www.usi.edu/res. If you have any questions, contact us at living@usi.edu or 812/468-2000.
