Linda Parker

Assistant Vice-President, Housing and Campus Connections

Linda Parker began her career with ÃÀÅ®×ö°® as a summer student in 1988 at the Fenwick Tower residence, a high-rise formerly home to 400 students. Since then, she has been an integral part of the Ancillary Services team in many roles serving our residence community and touched the lives of tens of thousands of students in her 35 years at ÃÀÅ®×ö°®.

She has taken on many challenges and proven that her hands-on, unflappable leadership style can get the team through any crisis – from hurricane to pandemic – and collaborate effectively with our campus partners.

Most recently, Linda was the Director of Residence and Conference Operations, managing teams on the Halifax and Truro campuses. She looks forward to continuing to lead the Housing & Campus Connections teams in creating safe and comfortable residences, growing our Conference Services and Summer Accommodations businesses, and in streamlining and bringing efficiencies to the DalCard office to better serve the ÃÀÅ®×ö°® community.

Strategic Plan

In 2025, the Housing & Campus Connections team developed a strategic plan that encompasses all of their units. This was done through a collaborative process that brought together the whole team and made sure every voice was heard.

This plan outlines the way forward for many key areas of ÃÀÅ®×ö°® that touch the daily lives of students, faculty, and staff, and will enable Housing & Campus Connections to grow and evolve to provide service excellence to all of the communities we serve.
