Welcome to Coral Tower Residence Hall! My name is Katie Bisang and I am extremely excited to start my third year as Community Development Educator (CDE) in Coral Tower for the 2008-2009 school year. Prior to working in Residential Education I received my Masters in Higher Education and Student Affairs Administration from the University of Vermont. Originally from New Jersey, I enjoy going to the shore, movies, shopping, different kinds of music, and discovering new restaurants. Coral Tower is an amazing residence hall of about 350 students, primarily sophomores, with Choices and Explorations floors throughout the building. We also have a Faulty Fellow in Residence, Robert Boland, who enjoys meeting and getting to know many residents of Coral. I strongly encourage you to get involved with the Coral Tower Hall Government or the many events planned for this year! I love to talk so please stop by to introduce yourself and let me know how I can help make your residential year at NYU a positive, fun, and educational experience!
