The Residence Hall Assembly (RHA) of the University of California, Berkeley is a student-run government body structured around the importance of providing student representation in the decisions that affect them and their community. Representing over 6500 students in UCB’s residential community, the assembly is an important link to the Berkeley community and campus. The assembly’s mandate is to “improve the quality of life in the residence halls” and with this in mind RHA works with the division of Residential and Student Service Programs, campus officials, the City of Berkeley, residence hall systems throughout the continent and other on campus organizations. We are an affiliate of the regional association PACURH (Pacific Affiliate of College and University Residence Halls), which in turn is a subset of the national group NACURH (National Association of College and University Residence Halls).
