Charlie Tatis

Charlie Tatis is assistant director of Housing Services, overseeing the undergraduate housing assignments process throughout the academic year with the goal of ensuring that students are assigned to rooms or suites that meet their needs and positively impact their Columbia experience. During the summer months, Tatis also manages Columbia's Summer and Conference Housing programs, providing space in the residence halls for guests attending a variety of conferences and events on campus, including accommodations for guests of graduating seniors during University Commencement and annual reunions hosted by the Columbia Alumni Association. In addition to all this, he is pursuing a B.S. in sports and recreation from Lehman College. 

Tatis began working at Columbia University in 2017 as assistant manager of operations at Alfred J. Lerner Hall, Columbia’s official student center, and joined the Columbia Housing team in 2021. Supporting his success in both roles have been the close relationships he has fostered with partners across the University, including Student Life, Residential Life, Campus Operations, Public Safety, Dining, and Environmental Stewardship.
