Resident Assistants (RAs). Each wing is staffed by a student Resident Assistant. Resident Assistants (RAs) are selected for their qualities of leadership, maturity, and ability to work with and relate to others. Each RA has numerous responsibilities. These include, but are not limited to, helping students with personal concerns in a confidential manner, or referring them to the appropriate person or office; creating a community living environment on the floor; and programming events to meet the students’ needs. In addition, the RA works toward developing an effective method of enforcing floor and hall rules and regulations. There are Resident Assistants on duty each evening and weekend in the residence halls.
