OFFICE OF STUDENT AFFAIRS

A MESSAGE FROM THE ASSISTANT DEAN OF STUDENT AFFAIRS!

Welcome to the Eastman School of Music! I am very pleased to welcome you to our New Student Orientation. Please
review this orientation booklet, as it is designed to help you make a successful transition into the Eastman community.
During Orientation, you will learn more about Eastman and the College’s expectations, have opportunities to interact in
meaningful ways with other new students, meet faculty and staff, and familiarize yourself with the resources necessary
to be successful as you begin. Orientation is intentionally structured to help you meet your goals as a new student and
meet our goals to assist you along the way.

The Office of Student Affairs is a department tasked with enhancing student growth and development. While your
academic deans and faculty members may push you to excel artistically and academically, Student Affairs practitioners
work to challenge and support your learning outside of the classroom. The Office of Student Affairs directly oversees the
Office for Residential Life and the Office for Student Activities & Engagement. The Office for Residential Life contributes
to the holistic development of students through support, programs, and collaborations which foster a safe, inclusive, and
engaged community for students living in the Student Living Center (SLC). The Office for Student Activities provides op-
portunities for student-focused extracurricular activities, diversity, leadership within clubs and organizations, fun events,
and civic engagement.

I encourage you to take advantage of the special opportunities to engage with the Eastman and Rochester communities
at large. The relationships you begin to forge this week will be the foundation of your professional networks here at East-
man and into the future. From the Office of Student Affairs, we wish you every success.

Sincerely,

Robert E. Bones, Ed. D

creating events.

I can’t wait to get to know each of you this fall and help you find your home here. I’m excited to work with passionate
and talented students that define Eastman. I’m sure I’ll see you in the recital halls and local venues, as well as around

OFFICE FOR RESIDENTIAL LIFE

THE STUDENT LIVING CENTER

The Student Living Center (SLC) has been a home for Eastman
students since it opened in 1991. All of the rooms come fully
furnished, containing a desk, dresser, wardrobe, and a twin,
extra-long bed. The rooms have Wi-Fi and many have a great view
of Rochester and even Lake Ontario. There is a computer lab, free
on-site laundry, a performance hall, and multiple lounges where
you can spend time with your friends and study. Over the summer,
we have completely renovated our student lounges with new ceil-
ings, paint, carpet, mattresses and furniture. The SLC is a secured
building that is closely monitored by Public Safety Officers, Resi-
dent Advisors, and front desk office assistants. All residential areas
are secured through University-issued IDs, which ensures the safety
and privacy of all residents.

The Office for Residential Life includes a live-in Assistant Director
and 11 Resident Advisors. Together, they provide students with
guidance and resources to help students navigate any challenges
or concerns that may arise. Additionally, they provide fun programs
for the SLC and their halls to help relieve some of the stress of
student life.

All undergraduate students who live in the SLC are provided
with resources that will empower them to face the rigors of
academic life with a live-in support system unlike any other.
We can’t wait for the opportunity to meet and support you
throughout your time at the Eastman School of Music.

Sincerely,

The Office for Residential Life Staff

RESIDENT ADVISORS

F R E Q U E N T LY A S K E D Q U E S T I O N S

What is a Resident Advisor?
The Resident Advisor (RA) facilitates the social, academic, and personal adjustment of students living in the Student
Living Center. They develop a sense of community among residents through fun programming and being a resource to
students. RAs enforce the rules and policies of the SLC and serve as a liaison between residents and administration.

If I am locked out of my room, who can I call?
If you have a roommate, call them first. Between 8pm-8am, you can call the RA On-Call at 585-764-5707.
From 8am-8pm, you can call Public Safety at 585-275-3333.

If I am having issues with my roommate, what do I do?
You can reach out to your RA! They are trained in conflict resolution and mediation.

Can we have overnight guests?
Guests are only permitted in the residential areas (the basement and upper floors) of the SLC when accompanied by a
current SLC Resident. Guests include friends who do not currently attend the Eastman School of Music, as well as East-
man students who reside off-campus. Once your guest arrives, they must sign in at the SLC Front Desk. You are respon-
sible for your guest at all times, and your roommate must consent to a guest being in your room. Overnight guests are
restricted to four nights a month. Residents who violate the guest policy may have their guest privileges suspended and
charged for the additional room rent.

Who can I go to if I have questions about residential living?
You can ask your RA! They know about SLC policies and campus resources. You can really come talk to them about
anything - not just residential life! They are here to help you to have the best possible experience. All RAs have SafeZone,
conflict resolution, mediation, and first aid (mental and physical) training.

What does an RA On-Call do?
The RA On-Call is the RA you can contact if you are having an emergency, locked out of your room, report suspicious
behaviors or odors, and report quiet hour violations. They go on safety rounds each night. A RA will be On-Call
Monday-Friday from 8pm-8am each day.

OFFICE FOR STUDENT ACTIVITIES

A MESSAGE FROM THE ASSISTANT DIRECTOR
FOR STUDENT ACTIVITIES & ENGAGEMENT!

Congratulations! You’re here - the Eastman School of Music. You’ve joined the select
group of individuals at this prestigious institution to make your passion into a life-long
pursuit. As you continue to dive head-first into study, practice, and a deeper understanding
of your unique musicianship, it’s always important to remember and be motivated by
the University of Rochester’s motto: “Meliora”, meaning “Ever Better.” In the Office of
Student Affairs, our goal is to make your holistic experience at the Eastman School
of Music “Ever Better” by providing opportunities for you to engage with other
students in co-curricular activities and special events on campus and throughout
the Rochester area.

My personal goal is to help cultivate a community of belonging and fun for the
purpose of building relationships and relieving some of the pressures of student life.
As the Assistant Director for Student Activities & Engagement, I am thrilled to take
part in many activities, outings, clubs, and events that we have throughout the year.
I want to see each one of you involved at Eastman, beyond your academic studies, in
order to enhance your overall experience at this incredible school. Some of the events
that I am particularly excited about are: Welcome Weekend, Spring Fling, midnight
movie premieres (my personal favorite), the occasional free “on your way to class”
breakfasts in Lowry Hall, and (most importantly) the free food trucks right outside
my office.

I look forward to participating together in these events and connecting with you
throughout the year. On behalf of the Office of Student Affairs, the Eastman
Orientation Crew, and the faculty and staff of the Eastman School of Music, welcome!

Sincerely,

Austin Curtis

EASTMAN ORIENTATION COMMITTEE

TIPS FOR FIRST YEAR STUDENTS

Attend All of the Orientation Events

All of the events that we hold are aimed at helping you learn about the resources, departments, and stu-

dent groups that will help you have a successful year here at Eastman. The events also give you unique

opportunities to get to know your class and make great friends!

Ask Questions
Orientation is full of information and there can be a lot to remember. Do not hesitate to ask questions in

sessions. You can also pose questions to your Team Capitan and/or Residential Advisor. Everyone here is

anxious to help you as you begin your first year at Eastman!

“Say Hello”
Orientation is a great way to meet new people and make friends, especially because everyone is as new

to Eastman as you are! Everyone is a friend you haven’t met yet, so keep your mind open and remember

to say “hello”!

No ID?
If you lost your ID, go to Lost and Found (East Wing) - someone may have found it. If not, see an Office

Assistant at the Front Desk to fill out a request form. If your ID is broken, see an Office Assistant at the

Front Desk to fill out a request form! If you bring the broken ID, there will be no charge.

Don’t Compare
It’s hard, but don’t compare yourself to your peers or the older students. If someone sounds great

in studio, tell them! But don’t feel like you’re not great too. You made it to Eastman, so trust me,

you’re incredible!

Attend Concerts
Eastman presents over 700 free concerts each year. Go to as many unique performances and events

throughout the year as you can!

Do Laundry

Do your laundry at odd times during the day/week that way the machines won’t be busy!

Take Care of Yourself

You came to Eastman to learn, but you learn best when you take care of yourself. You can’t learn as well

if you’re sick or tired, so don’t sacrifice those!
