Dalat serves as a home away from home for many students whose parents live outside the country. Resident supervisors have a special obligation to set up basic rules for all the dorms, but they are only used to serve as broad guidelines. Each set of dorm parents whilst following these principles, have to apply their own set of rules and privileges for their "dorm children."  Dalat gives the opportunity for dorm students to present ideas or concerns to us with certain situations during bi-weekly Dorm Representative meetings.

In the fall of 2002, we switched from our same gender, same age group dorms to co-ed, various age groups, and family style dorms. We have seen many positive results of this change. Currently there are five dorms hosting about 60 students, ranging from first grade to twelfth grade.
