Four staff members live on-site: three resident community advisors (RA) and one residence hall director (RHD). A staff person is “on-duty” and available by 7p.m., seven days a week.
The complex also includes free off-street parking, a coin-op laundry facility, a small community meeting space and a meditation room. The complex also houses the Naropa University Counseling Center, which can support students with concerns such as personal growth, addiction, stress management, relationships, depression/anxiety, eating disorders, etc. We realize that going to college is a big transition, and it is possible that you might need some support. Please don’t be afraid to use the resources (staff, resources, etc.) we have at Naropa for your well-being and personal growth.
Peer Mentorship
Along with the three staff members, four peer mentors live at Snow Lion. Peer mentors help to educate students in health awareness, social justice, lifestyle decisions and leadership skills. By educating students in this way peer mentors are asked to embody and model the skills of developing healthy choices, making informal lifestyle decisions and demonstrating leadership skills—all of which increase their ability to significantly contribute to a pluralistic society.
