“During my time here, we’ve always welcomed volunteers for ‘Move-In Day,'” said Jackie McCauley, hall director for Oak Hall. “The groups call or e-mail Khalilah Doss, and she tells them where to turn up.” Doss is assistant director of residential life at UMSL.

Take, for example, Steve Bene, supervisor of Facilities Services for Residential Life at UMSL. He oversees a team of five workers – including himself – who tend to the maintenance needs of 11 buildings on and near the UMSL campus that serve as student housing.
