ARTICLE: The Taproom - Reach's Circle Community
What is The Taproom?
The Taproom is Reach’s community space where educators and residence life professionals connect, share ideas, and learn from one another.
Inside The Taproom, members can:
- Ask questions and join discussions
- Share ideas and best practices
- Post updates and resources
- Upload photos and comments
- Attend live events and conversations
The Taproom is organized into thematic groups to make it easy to navigate. Think of groups like buildings on your campus – each one has a specific purpose. Within each group are smaller spaces (like rooms) where conversations and collaboration happen.
