Resident Directors: Residing in each residence hall is a full-time resident director (RD), who is a college graduate. The primary role of the RD is to establish a community in which students feel ownership and acceptance. The resident director is available to the students to personally assist with the diverse concerns that arise during the course of the year. Resident Assistants: Aiding the RD in attending to student needs and concerns are two or three resident assistants (RA's). RA's are students who have been carefully selected and trained to assist students and to help oversee the residence halls. Reasons to see a resident director or resident assistant:
Interested in Becoming an RA?Contact: Assistant Director of Residence Life Residence Hall Associations and Community Living AgreementsIn addition to the resident director, resident assistants, each residence hall has an elected hall association. The hall association is composed of floor leaders. Each wing or section elects a floor leader at the beginning of the fall semester. This floor leader serves as the voice for the hall. One of the greatest responsibilities of the floor leader is to aid the section or wing in creating and maintaining the community living agreement. The community living agreement is a document, unique to each floor, that sets forth the agreed-upon community standards for that area. The purpose of the community living agreement is to encourage residents to take an active role in developing and maintaining standards for their respective living environments. Each resident will take part in this process during the beginning weeks of the fall semester. For more information contact: CJ Yerington |
