USC Residential Housing Association

Founded in 1988, the Residential Housing Association, formerly known as Residential Student Government, serves all students who live in University housing by providing them with ways to enhance and contribute to their residential experience at the University of Southern California. RHA, acting as a liaison between students, faculty and administrators, expresses a unified voice to build community, empower residents, and create opportunities for academic excellence and leadership development. Comprised of the President and five directors in charge Advocacy, Financial Affairs, Community Outreach, Social Justice, and Programming, RHA strives to act as a resource by coordinating and promoting all phases of student development and self-government, while representing the residential community on both regional and national levels. RHA is housed under the Office of Residential Education (ResEd) which includes the network of Resident Assistants (RAs) and Residential Community Coordinators (RCCs).
