RA of the Week Anthony
He is an English Major & a 3rd semester RA. As a RA, he would like to “change at least one person’s life positively every semester, create lifelong friendships to help me in my career & life, join a few other organizations, and be the RA2 over a committee.”
RA of the Week is Mitchell!
He is a senior Information Technology major and this is his 3rd semester as a RA.
“I was appealed to the job because I always want to help people, but focus on school as well. This job was a perfect combination and I asked myself: ‘why not?’”
RA of the Week is Brad!
Sophomore/Business administration major/2nd semester RA.
“My favorite way to interact with residents is when I see them outside of our apartment building... letting them know that RA’s are more than just employees of housing and that we actually do care.”
“Lead. Support. Create. Dedicate. Community. Be a RA!”
Shoutout to all of the amazing RAs who assisted with interviewing prospective RA Candidates. #teamworkmakesthedreamwork#housingrules#recruting
