Rhodes University Wardens, The duty of a Warden is ensuring the smooth running of the house. This includes making sure that the rules of the house are adhered to; and with the support of the sub-wardens and house comm ensuring that students feel comfortable and enjoy living within the res. They are always available to help and advise students, but their function is not that of surrogate parent or ‘watchdog’. They are mainly responsible for the day-to-day running of the Hall or House and ensure the provision of an environment within the residence which is conducive to the development and success of its students at the University.
House wardening is a part time role for all wardens. Wardens usually have full time jobs during the business hours of the week. This is important to note as wardens are only available in the residence during the weekends and evenings. This is why the house is made up of a house-comm and sub-wardens, each with their own portfolio in managing the residence.
