I put together a video of the daily student life on campus, focusing on those who take part in "Residence Life." In my video, I had the pleasure of interviewing the Vice President Director of Residence Life, a residence hall assistant, an employee at the resident gym on campus and a current resident in Richardson Hall.

Residence Life offers a number of meal plans that suit individuals' eating preferences and a variety of different style residence halls. Community dorms include Richardson Hall, Woffard Hall and Margaret Nance Hall. Suit style includes Thomson Hall, Lee Wicker, and Phelps. Appartment style offers The Courtyard at Winthrop. Residents can eat at the main dining hall, Thomson Cafeteria, or at the Digorgio campus center.
Students on campus seem to grow much closer at Winthrop than at most other school's I've visited. At USC or Clemson, students are "really more of a number than a name" as Cindy Castons, vice president of student life states. The social prosperity in students at Winthrop is a much more blooming experience than those at other schools.
The project was a lot of fun; I got to explore the benefits of living at Winthrop, the nature of students and faculty and I enjoyed putting the video together through the editing process. Editing took a lot of time because I had to learn different characteristics of the software, Adobe Premiere. I am very proud of this video and think that it does justice to the Department of Residence Life. As quoted by Riley Ketcham, freshman resident to Richardson Hall, she would "recommend anyone to live on campus!"
