Bono is excited that Utica College might be his next home.

"I'm ready to take on a new role at an institution where I feel like I can be a real positive contributor to the campus," he said.

"I miss living in a town that has an identity."

"In terms of how much direct access or contact would I want with students, is as much as necessary to do the best job that you can to serve the community. Whatever the student might need."

"I like the student interaction. It's the part of being a director of a smaller school I'm encouraged by.

"I've learned that as much as I try to cram my work into a 9-5 work day, student life doesn't end at 5 'o clock in the afternoon. And students are rarely up unless they're in class at 10 o'clock in the morning, so, adjusting the way I do things so I am accessible and available to students on their schedule. Even as a director, if it means staying until 7 or 8 o'clock at night or going home and coming back for a program or activity and being accessible to the students in that way."

"I'm excited to come back to a school that has athletic teams and events and things that I can go to, not only because I enjoy going to sporting events, but the support of our students and the residents who are on the athletic teams. I think it means a lot to them when they see members of the professional staff, and the faculty and the administration at those events cheering them on."



Elizabeth Hartzell, a candidate for the UC's Director of Residence Life, met with student leaders for lunch on Tuesday, Jan. 26, as a part of the interviewing process. The process was intended for residential students to provide the search committee with thoughtful feedback about the candidates. Hartzell, who is currently the interim director of residence life, says she is ready to get to work and make the residence halls at UC the place to be. She gave a brief insight on the innovative and creative ideas that she believes will attract students to live in the residence halls, while making it fun and exciting.
