Purcell residence University of British Columbia
editThe Purcell residence, named after the Purcell mountain ranges in British Columbia, is on the northern part of the UBCO (University of British Columbia Okanagan campus). The residence is managed by upper year students and are called Residence advisors or RA for short. The RA's help residents with any problem they have, such as questions about living in the building or even emotionally supporting them.
Student life
editPurcell is close to the university center, only taking 2-3 minutes to walk. The real downside is that classes are further away and take more time to reach, ranging from 5-7 minutes. Purcell has its own vending machines and lounges where students can cook for themselves or socialize with peers. Students can take the bus to the Okanagan lake where they can enjoy many activities such as kayaking or swimming.
