2015 RESIDENCE GENERAL INFORMATION THE RESIDENCE ADVANTAGE Residence life at The Michener Institute is fun, safe and convenient. There are many benefits to choosing residence accommodation at Schatz Hall. You immediately have a network of classmates with whom to work on assignments or study; you are in the same building as your classes, library and computer labs and you are within walking distance to the downtown amenities. Furthermore, you are not locked into a 12-month lease which is customary for most rental apartments and houses in the city. At Michener our residence population tends to be a mature group of students (more closely related to grad housing) that values both a quality residence experience and education. Schatz H a l l is organized to help you achieve your education in a friendly, supportive a nd inclusive environment. We believe that residence is much more than simply a place to live: it’s also an opportunity to experience a diverse community with people from every region of the globe. This can help you prepare for success in our increasingly interconnected world. Residence l i f e provides a terrific opportunity t o meet friends and study-mates. We hire Residence Dons (senior Michener students) to live on each floor and assist with all aspects of residence life such a providing personal and/or academic support, organizing floor activities and working with the Student Success Network of to make your time with us the best experience possible!
