Student Leadership

Hall Council elections take place each September. Election information will be posted in Kodiak classrooms at the beginning of the year. Students should speak with their Resident Advisor or building supervisor if they have any questions.

Western New England University has been offering the Residence Hall Linens program since 2006. Students at Western New England University require specially-sized sheets, blankets and comforters to fit the campus' extra long mattresses. These extra-long beds (longer than 76 inches) are intended to maximize the comfort levels of every student. Our goal each year is to make sure students and parents have the right size residence hall bedding for move-in. XL sheets are more difficult to find, so we provide a variety of custom-sized linens sure to fit and guaranteed to last until graduation. We also have a large selection of extra-long comforters, extra-long mattress pads, extra-long thermal blankets, pillows, storage solutions and anything else you might need for your new room.

Proceeds from this program are used for programming in Student Affairs. Plus, linens are delivered to your home during the summer so you don’t have to worry about waiting in line at the store. Parents and students who have taken advantage of this opportunity in previous years recommend placing your order early, since popular colors and patterns can sell out quickly.
