General information

Roo To Do List Program Overview: The Roo To Do List promotes academic and co-curricular engagements important to first-year students in their Akron Experience and success. First-year students living within the residence halls will have the opportunity to check off intentional, success-oriented “to do” items on their Roo To Do List. Focused on the success of our students, enriching their experience, and retaining them at the University, this interactive and student-friendly program strives to present resources, programs, and faculty/staff interactions vital to a UA student. Who is eligible to participate? First-year students residing on campus at The University of Akron are eligible for participation in the Roo To Do List program. How do I participate? Tell me more… 1. Pick up Roo To Do List from your hall’s Service Desk or print your own copy from the link provided below. 2. Take Roo To Do List to programs/events noted on the list to receive credit for attendance by a University staff/faculty member. 3. You will turn in your completed Roo To Do List by the deadline noted on your eight week challenge list. Students must complete 10 of the 15 items listed on the Roo To Do List for each 8 week period. 4. Select events will be verified through social media and/or by Residence Life & Housing staff as noted on the Roo To Do List. 5. Upon completing required items noted for the eight week challenge, Residence Life & Housing staff will review entries to confirm completion, recognition, and eligibility for drawings. A new 8 week challenge will be posted to the website and available at the service desks in the residence halls every 8 weeks. Students can join in on the Roo To Do List challenge at any time throughout the academic year. Missed the first 8 week challenge? That’s ok. You have the opportunity to be recognized and entered into drawings that take place at the end of each 8 week period. What’s in it for me? We want to celebrate your success at The University of Akron and all the milestones in between. Students who successfully complete the items on the eight week Roo To Do List challenge will be recognized at their residence hall’s service desk and on the champions list within the Roo To Do List webpage. Students will also be entered into a drawing for a potential Residence Life & Housing scholarship. One student will be chosen at the end of each eight week challenge to receive a $500.00 housing scholarship to be applied to their room fee.
