Organization is government for residents

KU students who live in residence halls can become more than just another face by getting involved in the Association of University Residence Halls.
The governmental organization gives hall residents a voice in different areas of the University through five committees, said Jamie Curburth, president of the association.
"AURH is the Student Senate of the residence halls," he said. "Basically everyone in the residence halls is involved."
