2025 Annual Benchworks Residential Student Survey

Beginning Monday, April 7, 2025, the Department of University Housing & Conference Services will launch its annual Benchworks by Elentra survey. All non-staff residential students (i.e., those living in Bard Hall, Reighard Hall, Shenks Hall, and the Villages) will be invited to participate. The survey will remain open through Friday, April 18, 2025.

Students will receive an email invitation with detailed instructions on how to complete the survey. Two reminder emails will be sent to those who have not yet responded.

This assessment is vital to the Department of University Housing & Conference Services and the university as a whole.
