Giovanna Ortiz of Manheim Named Resident Assistant at Lebanon Valley College

2015 Aug 25

Giovanna Ortiz of Manheim, Pa., was selected to serve as a resident assistant at Lebanon Valley College in Mary Green Hall for the fall of 2015. Ortiz, a graduate of Manheim Central High School, is pursuing a bachelor of arts in political science and Spanish and global studies.

LVC selects resident assistants (RAs) and resident mentors (RMs) from the student body who live in the residence halls and serve as mentors and role models. Ortiz will do a mixture of social and educational programming as an RA, helping first-year students make the transition from high school to college and making sure students of all ages have access to the College's many social and academic resources.

A residential college, LVC offers a range of housing options. For the first two years, students live in traditional residence halls, allowing them to learn about themselves, meet a lot of people, and make friends. Most upperclassmen live in more independent environments, including small houses, rooms clustered as suites, or apartment-style housing.
