Welcome to Webster/Dickinson!

Greetings from your Residence Director:

Welcome to the Webster/Dickinson cluster! We look forward to meeting you when you arrive on campus and helping you make the most out of your first year!

My name is Michael Dodge and I am the Residence Director (RD) for both Webster and Dickinson, also known as “Web/Dic.” Basically, I am the supervisor of the cluster, which means I oversee two Assistant Residence Directors (ARDs), one Cluster Office Manager (COM), 24 Resident Assistants (RAs), and the Cluster Office and Mail Sorter Staffs. Together we work to ensure that every part of your on-campus experience is a positive one.

I am excited to welcome you to your new home for the year! I hope to see you take an active role in shaping this cluster’s future. Once you arrive on campus, please feel free to stop by my office, located on the first floor of Dickinson, room 114, if you have any questions or just want to say hi! Enjoy the rest of your summer! We look forward to seeing you in September!
