Mission Statement

The Congress of the South 40 acts as the programming body for the students living on the South 40. We strive to improve the lives of residents by providing a variety of ways for them to participate in their residential areas, play a leadership role on campus and get involved in the Wash U and St. Louis communities. Congress also acts as the student's representative by presenting student input about the operation of our Residential areas to the administration. Our goal is to support the efforts of Residential Life create a community where students can live, learn and lead.
