House Councils
House Councils at Duke University are fantastic opportunities for students to engage in a positive and enriching residential experience. House councils are elected student representatives who work collaboratively with residence life staff to organize exciting events and activities within the residence halls. House Councils promote a sense of community and belonging by providing a platform for students to get involved and connect with their peers.
You can participate in social events, educational programs, and community service projects, as well as make your voice heard on important issues impacting your community. Being a member of House Council is a fulfilling experience that can help you develop leadership skills, build friendships, and create lifelong memories.
Keep an eye out on your Duke email over the summer to learn more about House Council, available positions, and how to run for your council!
East Campus Council
The East Campus Council (ECC) is a group of selected student officers and representatives from across East Campus communities. As the first-year programing council and student advocates for East Campus, ECC works alongside the individual East Campus House Councils to make sure your residential experience is the best it can be.
ECC’s goal is to enhance campus life by providing support and direction through active leadership and community involvement. They host awesome events throughout the year, from movie nights and viewing parties for Duke Basketball to the annual Bricks to Stone Party and Midnight Breakfast. They also make sure that campus is a safe, educational, and enjoyable experience for everyone by advocating for first-year needs and making sure that your voices are heard.
East Campus Council interviews will occur at the same time as House Council interviews. Information about applying for ECC will be sent to you before August!
