RLC is the residence hall's programming and legislative branch of the Eastern Kentucky University Student Government Association. We have heard from many residents this past year about things you would like to see changed within the residence halls. Now we need you to HELP US CREATE CHANGE!

We need to show University Officials that you, the residents, want to see certain changes before anything can change. LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD!

What I am asking you, is to take 2 minutes to log onto EKU Direct, click on the Student Services and Financial Aid tab, and take the RESIDENCE LIFE COUNCIL SURVEY.
