What are the responsibilities of the Residents of the Scholarship Houses? The Scholarship Houses are cooperative living environments that provide campus living for women who meet both the financial and academic requirements. The cooperative living environment means the residents learn skills necessary to run the houses effectively and efficiently. Once selected to live in the house, they elect officers for the semester who are responsible for ensuring that the bylaws of the house are followed. There are weekly meetings of the officers and residents who are responsible for all house operations, including finances, cleaning, purchasing and preparing food.
