Housing at SGU - Services

Resident Assistants

All of the dormitories at True Blue are staffed with Resident Assistants. These RAs foster a community of mutual respect and cooperation.

  • Resident Assistants are available to ensure that students are comfortably settled and issued their keys.
  • They are available to handle emergencies 24 hours a day.
  • They may mediate roommate problems, referring students to the Housing Office or Dean of Students for final resolution if an amicable solution is not found.
  • There are 10 Resident Assistants on campus.

Maintenance

The University offers around-the-clock maintenance service that can be reached at any time through the Resident Assistants by filling out a work-order form and returning it to the RA upon completion so that they might follow up on the work to be done and encourage prompt repairs.

Security

As in any community, crime does occur in Grenada, although most crimes are petty theft. For personal safety, however, please observe the following:

  • DO NOT walk around off campus after dark.
  • Lock your windows and doors at all times, especially while the air conditioning unit is on.
  • Keys should be kept in a safe place; “lock outs” will result in a penalty fee of EC $5.00.
  • Follow the same general safety guidelines you would follow at home. Security guards patrol both campuses 24 hours per day.

Storage

Storage space is available on the True Blue campus. Note that the University is not responsible for any property placed in storage; however, students can opt to insure their items with local insurance companies.
