I had the absolute honor of meeting and interviewing the wonderful Isis Howard, a Residential Advisor in PCV 1. Isis, a 2nd year Environmental Management and Protection major, greeted me with a smile which led me to immediately feel comfortable around her. Isis had several personal motivations for why she chose to become a RA; ranging from personal growth and gaining useful life skills, such as communication, honesty, and leadership, to giving back to the Cal Poly community. One point brought up that resigned with me was that her transition to living on her own had been difficult, but her RAs were there for her every step of the way. Their efforts to create a sense of home in an unfamiliar environment truly motivated her to become a RA. Now that Isis has received the job, she mentions she receives the benefits that she hoped for from the beginning everyday- she continues to develop skills in a wide range of areas that deem valuable for life.

I know people who loved their RAs, and I know people who absolutely hated their RAs. So as an RA one has to be prepared for the best and worst when it comes to supervising adults with different attitudes. As a resident advisor one can also be viewed as a mediator between residents to prevent or settle disputes. For instance, if someone is being too loud during quiet hours the RA is there to address him or her, and ensure the rules are being enforced. To prevent possible confrontation amongst residents I think it is better for the RA to go over, and tell them to keep it down for the sake of the rest of the people on hall.

Resident Assistants at Marist College are extremely important, as they act as role models, mentors, representations of the college itself, and ultimately friends to their residents. They aid in the adjustment of students to their new dorm and provide advice to their peers in all aspects of college life including but not limited to social and academic acclimation. Resident Assistants have numerous tasks to perform daily and much responsibility; the most important being to make sure that all residents are safe and happy. Through RA programs, meetings and nightly rounds, a sense of community is initiated and fostered throughout the year. Being a RA requires complete commitment of time and energy because it sometimes calls for late nights, sparks

I feel as though a great resident assistant should be friendly, relatable, and helpful. A great RA should be friendly, in that, they should be a friend to their residents. They should engage their residents in fun activities and create a personal relationship with each of them. A great RA should also be relatable, in that, they should find something in common with their residents and be able to relate to situations and problems their residents may encounter. Lastly, a great RA should be helpful, in that, they should make their residents feel safe and be able to resolve problems residents in their hall may

Duties of being a Resident Assistants can be very challenging, exciting, and enduring. Although I am an incoming sophomore at Wilberforce University I believe I meet the criteria and have the skills of being a RA. I understand there will be conflicts that come along with that title, but with past opportunities and obstacles I am able to resolve many situations. It is important to complete a task on time, so things can run smoothly and efficiently. I am a great team player and I work well with others; which is why it is imperative to be punctual. There is a plethora of skills I could bring to the table such as; my love and compassion for others, my people skills, and i'm very well with multi-tasking. I enjoy helping and uplifting young ladies

In the Fall of 2014 I became an RA, Resident Assistant, a position longed for since I entered as a student at Landmark College, a college for students with learning disabilities and autism spectrum disorders. I went into the job aspiring to help other students and build upon the close knit and friendly community that was already in place. My job was to ensure the safety and security of all residents, refer students to appropriate services on campus, and run and plan programs alongside two other RA’s and a Resident Dean.

Ma'am, this is a short suspense the CRRB board is this Thursday at 1230hours.

More importantly, I truly believe my willingness to learn will make me a valuable asset to a company such as yours. I will not mind filling in as an Intake Coordinator when needed or being crossed trained as I enjoy floating and learning the different positions within my company. I am eager to form partnerships with practitioners, the national committee, and office staff. I look forward to the exposure, skills, and knowledge that such a position holds. Admittedly, change, increased responsibilities and assigned projects present an opportunity for me to be challenged, but those things also provide an opportunity for me to discover a new world of doing and being, which I’m always aiming to master. I am a lifelong student so I feel that there is so much for me to learn, to share, and to experience in this role. I honestly believe this will be a mutual

This is one of the most difficult student positions to hold and to perform well, and still have a social life. As a RA you are called on to do a mutilate of tasks that need to be done in a certain amount of time, while at the same time you are still a student, and still hold college experience. As an Resident Assistant you hold many responsibilities, and held accountable for so many other people during the time you are shaping your own education. By far being an RA, a student, a person who can make bad decision at times and a sociable being is one of the greatest challenges you will face during your life as an RA here at Delaware State University. RA's act as the supervisors (Mother Hen, or Pops) of their floor/wing or apartment unit and gain valuable experiences that will exercise their organization, leadership, supervisory methods, crisis management, and peer counseling skills in the area of conflict resolution. All of these experiences you will gain as an RA are experience that you can use for a lifetime, and use as an example for any other situation that may arise in the

As wonderful as being an RA is, the position does not lack challenges. These challenges keep me motivated to continue to improve year after year. This year, one challenge was getting to know residents on other floors and sharing my enthusiasm with them. During my first year as an RA, I already knew many of the residents before becoming their RA and had fostered relationships with them. This year, I did not have the fortune in the beginning and this has impacted our rapport. It has been a challenge, one I will have to continue to work on. To overcome this challenge I am making a greater effort to talk with residents and tailoring programs to residents on multiple floors. Going forward, I know that I will have to put more effort into getting

I am much closer in age to incoming students, having just gone through the same experiences and challenges that they will face. I am well equipped to help them with problems and give advice, because I know very well how it feels to step into a college journey and wonder how to take it on. Your first year of college can be very exciting, but also terrifying, and I want to be able to help new students with this and make them feel as comfortable as possible. I am a people person, I love helping solve problems, give advice, make people feel welcomed and at home. I enjoy planning events, in my friend group at home I am always the one saying “let's get out and do something!”. As an RA, there are many things I am hoping to learn to help me grow. I want to learn more about how to work on team, develop ideas with a group of people to reach goals and solve problems. I want to learn how to lead, whether that be in problem solving, activities, or just helping a resident with a problem. I want to be able to help them as much as I can to make sure their experience at Baker College is one they will always remember fondly, because that is how I remember my first few weeks here, and I believe everyone should feel that way when they arrive. I set myself apart with my

Listening is something I put at first priority in conversations. This will help in the RA position because the best way to help someone can be just listening to what they have to say. The same goes in receiving feedback from the supervisor and other co-workers. I have many ideas of how I want to help the residents I work with, but it all starts with the residents and what will specifically help them. I can't do my job completely right until I listen to my residents and their needs.

There is a difference between being well-liked and being well-respected, however, they are so interchangeable that the different doesn’t matter, because to be a great leader you need to be both liked and respected. I feel that a RA is in such a position that they should also show both sides. They should be able to have fun and allow the residents to enjoy themselves, but when things go too far they have to be able to take the rears and control the situation. It’s true that being the rule enforcer can cause people to dislike you, but I feel that as long as you create a sincere, open, and honest environment for the residents to express themselves, but also show your ability to be competent and precise.
