---- The Embry-Riddle Resident Student Association (ERRSA) is the student run division of the Department of Housing and Residence Life at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida, United States. The purpose of ERRSA is to build community in the residence education system, to represent residents by gathering feedback and acting as a liaison between students and the Department of Housing and Residence Life, and to encourage students to get involved within the residence halls.
Affiliations ERRSA is affiliated with the National Association of College and University Residence Halls (NACURH), the South Atlantic Affiliate of College and University Residence Halls (SAACURH), and the Florida Association of Residence Halls (FARH).
Organization ERRSA was founded in 1996 with Michael Capace as its first president, Alan Kayanan as Vice President and David Prus as Treasurer. With the goal of enhancing resident life at Embry-Riddle; ERRSA devised several different methods to accomplish this goal:

General Board ERRSA which meets once a week to tackle issues within the residence halls. Each residential area on campus is represented by one or more voting representatives, who are elected at the beginning of the fall semester.
