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.

24/7 Support

Residents have access to support at all times—day or night.

  • On-call RA numbers are posted at the front desk of each building.
  • RAs are on-call from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. Monday through Friday, and 24 hours a day on weekends (Saturday and Sunday).
  • Between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on weekdays, please contact the Housing Office directly at 580-559-5602.
