Residence community at UNBAt UNB in 2011, there are fourteen different residence houses to choose from, each with its own character, culture, and traditions. There are one men's, two women's, nine co-ed, one apartment style, and one suite style residence.[2] Most of the early residences have changed in format from single-gender houses to co-educational style configurations since their original construction from the late 1950s and early 1960s. Harrison changed from male residence to co-ed residence for autumn 1991. Community organizationThe UNB residence community is loosely based upon the Oxbridge system of separate colleges within a federalised university system. As such, Harrison is part of a larger community of residences at UNB. It is located as part of campus' central 'quad' zone. The residence community has various staff and leadership, and at the house-level, a Don -(faculty/staff or senior grad student )- who lives in the residence. The Don is assisted by floor Proctors and educational Proctors - (senior undergraduates who help the students adjust to residence and university life). Former residents have varied views on the evolution or devolution of the quality of experience students gain from living in residence over the years. Some say that residents were formerly encouraged to identify closely with the unique character and traditions of their house, often as a result of previous parental attendance at UNB. House Dons and Residence Fellows provided a modicum of adult supervision and generally set the tone for how the House operated. They would say that recent times have seen UNB administration to have imposed many more rules and regulations and this has arguably changed residence markedly. UNB social lifeThe social aspect of life in residence, and particularly in Harrison has changed substantially over the years with each subsequent time period referring to a past period as a utopia. Accurately, each change has imposed a different degree of controls on social activity. At one time, many residences operated in-house bars wherein they hosted regular parties. In later years, the bars were abolished, and the Dean of Residence office operated Campus Bar Services, a travelling bar service. Bar Services would be hired by each residence when hosting a regulated social event, of which several were permitted per term. There is now a limit of one such party per term. These limitations have been enforced to alter the image of UNB as a party-school. Also, the Liquor store on Prospect Street was named the busiest in the province, anecdotally because it was closest to UNB.{{cn|date=August 2014}} Harrison House student self governmentThe residents at Harrison elect a house committee to act as peer-leaders. The committee also works with the Residence Coordinator, Don, floor proctors (RAs), and educational proctors to coordinate house social, educational, charity, athletic activities, etc. Harrison House President List2019-2020 Lexi Gavin 2018-2019 Louisa Gauvin 2017-2018 Holly Russell 2016-2017 Logan Blanchard 2015-2016 Dakota Van Dijk 2014-2015 Brett Pineau 2013-2014 Kyle Merritt 2012-2013 Chris Cormier/Erin Ferguson 2011-2012 Richard Sawler 2010-2011 Mark Devereux 2009-2010 Carolyn Wilson 2008-2009 Scott Carter 2007-2008 Brian Koval 2006-2007 Andrina DiFrancesco 2005-2006 Kyle Dorken 2004-2005 Kyle MacKenzie 2003-2004 Brent McCumber 2002-2003 Patrick "Hayseed" Rosebrook 2001-2002 Adam "Country" Harris 2000-2001 Erin Hardy 1998-2000 James "Jimbo" Titus 1997-1998 Andrew Dawson 1996-1997 Ryan Howard 1995-1996 Melanie Morrissey 1994-1995 Doug MacLean 1993-1994 Daniel Léger 1992-1993 Larry Whitman 1991-1992 Sean Daly 1990-1991 Dean Mullin 1989-1990 Ed Turpin 1968-1969 Alexander "Sandy" Hogan 1967-1968 Doug Mathews Harrison House Don List2017 House Don System Abolished 2016-2017 Phil Taber 2013-2016 Hannah Connon 2012-2013 Bronwyn Bonney 2010-2012 Brian Beaudette 2008-2010 Krystal Ford 2007-2008 Paul Mysak 2006-2007 T.

An Associate Professor of History at UNB, he was responsible for many of the traditions and innovations within Harrison House and across the residence system as a whole. From tolerating the Pumpkin Sacrifice to introducing the student Janitorial Service, he inspired a generation of Harrisonians.{{cn|date=August 2014}} Resident janitorial serviceFor many years, Harrison has had a UNB-sponsored student run co-operative house janitorial students whose employees were house residents. The basic idea was that if the residents were able to maintain an adequate level of cleanliness, they would benefit from the income as well as gaining responsibility. The residence is one of two UNB residences that still maintains the student run Janitorial Service, also known as J-Staff. Supervisor List2018/19 - Brandon Horvath & Kordell Walsh 2017/18 - Cabot Morgan & Amanda Short House eventsHarrison House maintains the longest running tradition at UNB, The Great Pumpkin Sacrifice, which began in 1973. For the event a large pumpkin is carved in the face of the Roman god Janus. One side of the face is a happy face, the other a not-so-happy one. This represents the 'academic' harvest and that some are happy with the crop reaped, while others are not. House residents decorate campus and the city with pumpkins in the lead-up to the event, and mark the coming of the event by a two-minute howl at midnight on each of the seven days prior to the event. Silence marks the daylight hours of 31 October in a mark of the solemnity of the occasion and the judgement that will come in the sacrifice.[1] Leading up to midnight on Halloween, the Great Pumpkin is escorted by a cast of actors, wise-people, and house residents guarded by the Pumpkin's militia out of the house front doors, and across campus, blessed at the former Lady Dunn Hall courtyard (now Joy Kidd House), and returned to Harrison House where it is risen to the roof and sacrificially dropped and exploded (under the supervision of a pyro-technician). Although the event has always been prescribed to take place a midnight on Halloween, for several years in the early 2000s, the timing was adjusted to just before 10 PM, so that it would not interfere with university quiet hours. Orientation weekFor a few years, until the fall of 2006, Frosh Week in Harrison House included The Mr. and Mrs. Harrison contest. This was a voluntary cross-dressing pageant, in which new Harrisonians went before a panel of judges, composed of Orientation Committee members. 50th anniversaryHouse leadership has begun planning for a 50th anniversary celebration to be held from 29 to 31 October 2011 to coincide with the 39th annual Great Pumpkin Sacrifice.[3] Harrison House in the communityHouse charityResidence's plan an all day curling tournament to raise money for Right To Play.[1] Notable alumni
