What it does
Each residence hall elects its own council early each fall; those councils send representatives to a campus-wide association that allocates a shared programming budget and runs at least one all-hall event each semester.
Getting involved
Any resident can run for their hall council in the September elections or simply show up to open monthly meetings; no prior experience or time commitment beyond attendance is required to participate.
In and around Porter Falls
Day-to-day life at Porter runs between Founders Union, the residence halls on the south quad and North Campus across the Riverfront Trail. The Porter Loop shuttle and a compact footprint mean most students can get anywhere on campus in under fifteen minutes on foot.
The practical details
Structure: One elected council per hall, feeding into a campus-wide association. Meetings: Monthly, open to any resident. Funding: A small budget for hall programming and a campus-wide event each semester. Anything time-sensitive — an accommodation, a booking, a deadline — is worth confirming directly before you rely on it, because the specifics here can change from term to term.
If you have a question
The office behind this is Dean of Students Office (Founders Union, Room 200). Call (715) 555–0182 or email deanofstudents@uwporterfalls.edu during the fall and spring terms, or sign in to MyPorter to send a message or book a time. If it turns out another office owns the question, they will route it rather than send you back to the start.
