Get Ready to Get SOLID.
What is SOLID?
Students of Lafayette in Democracy.
It is the governing body of our residence hall. Every NYU residence hall has its own hall council.
Typically, its responsibilities include social, wellness, and community service programming, as well as building advocacy; however, it is a group designed to do what YOU want.
What positions are available?

President
Vice-President
Secretary
Treasurer
IRHC Representative
Publicity Chair
Community Relations Committee Chair
Community Service Committee Chair
Social Committee Chair
Sustainability & Wellness Committee Chair

(Everyone is always welcome to attend General Assembly meetings, but the designated floor rep is responsible for being the floor’s vote)

You can use your graphic design skills to create cohesive advertising approaches.
You can manage a budget of over $22,000.
You can create the kinds of programs and building-wide activities that you’ve always wanted to attend.
You can lead meetings and structure them to be exciting and effective.
You can meet new people in the building, and you can reach out to the other residents on your floor as their representative voice to advocate for building needs.
You can support your cause by designing community service opportunities.
