Residential Mentors
Residential Mentors (RMs) are residents employed by Student Living. They are responsible for supporting the wellbeing of our residents, assisting in the transition to independent living and providing general support for the unique experience of living on campus.
To help you get to know your housemates and stay up-to-date with what’s happening at Student Living, your RM will hold regular meetings and activities. Your RM is your first port of call for any questions, queries, support or help. Whether your concern is dealing with homesickness or where to pick up your student card, your RM will point you in the right direction.
RMs are provided with extensive training including mental health education, sexual consent, creating respectful environments and drug and alcohol education.
The University of Newcastle acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands within our footprint areas: Awabakal, Darkinjung, Biripai, Worimi, Wonnarua, and Eora Nations. We also pay respect to the wisdom of our Elders past and present.
