Resident Assistants (RAs)

Resident Assistants are full time students who serve as peer mentors, organize events and enforce policy. They help maintain a conducive study and living environment for approximately 30-35 students. They are knowledgeable about the college, its resources and personnel, and are available to counsel students on their residence floor. RAs are students carefully selected for their leadership and communication skills. They receive training in problem-solving and emergency response. Their academic performance is also considered in the selection process. If students have questions or problems, they should consult first with their RA. RAs are also required to maintain a minimum GPA of 2.25 and have a clean disciplinary record.

The Resident Assistant (RA) position is an exciting opportunity available to students that will help you grow and discover your inner leadership potential. As an RA you will gain valuable experience working on a staff, building a community in your residence hall, mediating conflicts, and planning programs all while improving yourself for future employment opportunities.
