Safety & Support in ECU Housing
East Central University is committed to providing a safe and supportive living environment for all residents.
Each residence hall is overseen by a full-time Residence Director (RD) who manages daily operations and ensures a positive residential experience. In addition, trained Resident Assistants (RAs) live on-site to support student safety, facilitate programming, and address community needs.
