What makes Taft such a vibrant place is that is is made up of people from all
over the globe and from many racial, ethnic and spiritual backgrounds. For such
a community to work, each of its members much share a commitment to common
values, at the heart of which are personal integrity and respect for others.
The Dean of Students' Office coordinates the many details that help a
residential community run smoothly: rooming assignments, permissions and
transportation, attendance, coordinating the school calendar and overseeing the
conduct system among others.
