The Resident Deans are the academic deans for Harvard undergraduates. Their full titles are slightly different depending on the College student population they oversee. Resident Deans are directly responsible for the academic and personal welfare of undergraduates. There are twelve Allston Burr Resident Deans, one in each of the Houses. There are four Resident Deans of First-Year Students, one for each first-year Yard. The Dudley Community Resident Dean has responsibility for students who live in the Co-op, a large percentage of the students who reside off-campus, and for visiting undergraduates (VUS).   
   
Whenever instructors have a concern about an undergraduate, they are urged to contact the appropriate Resident Dean. Students’ Yard or House affiliations are indicated on course rosters. The Mid-Term Progress Report tool, accessible in the course roster on my.harvard, is one way to communicate with a Resident Dean about a student in your course, but you can also email or call the Resident Deans directly. For a full list of Resident Deans and their contact information, please visit the [Dean of Students Office](https://dso.college.harvard.edu/people-type/resident-deans) page*.*
