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

They must remain calm in stressful situations in order to provide quality care (College Grad). PA’s need to evaluate patients’ symptoms and administer the appropriate treatments. So they must be diligent when investigating complicated medical issues so that they can determine the best course of treatment for each patient (College Grad).
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.

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.

HR 1445 is a bill passed on March 26, 2015 in the 84th Texas Legislature to recognize March 2015 as Women’s History Month. Jessica Farrar is a democratic from District 148 and sponsored this bill (Open States). I chose this bill because, quoting from the bill itself, it “provides an ideal opportunity to acknowledge the historic contributions made by women in the Lone Star State and beyond” (Farrar). First, the bill discusses about how women have played crucial roles since the Texas Republic was found. Then, the bill later on details about some of the actual women that have impacted the state of Texas greatly: Minnie Fisher Cunningham, Hortense Sparks Ward, Edna Gladney, Oveta Culp

In the beginning of our great history of Texas Southern University, I’ve come to learn that Texas Southern was known by many other names before it became as we know it today. On September 14, 1927, the Houston Public School Board agreed to fund the creation of two new junior colleges, one for whites and one for African Americans. Houston Colored Junior College first enrollment count in the summer of 1927 was 300 which would dramatically change in the fall semester when the school dropped to just 88 students. The Houston Colored College was established to give African Americans the opportunity to receive a college education. The college progressed and improved so much that it became a member of the Association of Colleges and the Southern Association of Colleges, which is all about the improvement of education in the South through accreditation.

The history of Texas A&M University, the first public institution of higher education in Texas. The Texas A&M University was first approved by the United States Congress on July 2, 1862. This act provided for donation of public land to the states for the purpose of funding higher education whose “leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and mechanic arts." The State of Texas agreed to create a college under the terms of the morrill act in November 1866, but actual formation didn’t come until the establishment of the Agricultural and mechanical College of Texas by the state legislature on April 17, 1871. A commission created to locate the institution accepted the offer of 2,416 acres of land from the citizens of Brazos County

In order to support the costs of my education, I began working in the Housing Department. My student worker experience led me to become a Resident Assistant (RA).

This position has been one of the most rewarding opportunities as it has allowed me to develop and improve skills I will use for the rest of my life. I take great pride in knowing that my residents can depend on me and come to me in times of
Growing up my family had little to no money. My parents, immigrants from El Salvador, worked two jobs each. Home was a small space with a conjoined kitchen and living room. When Mom and Dad first arrived to America, they never imagined a child of theirs would become a university student. Coming to America itself was in their wildest dreams. To them, an education of that level was unattainable. Now, I represent my family wherever I go. I am at TWU for my family and for my dreams. One day, I will be the Nurse Practitioner I always envisioned. But more importantly, I will give my parents and my grandmother everything they never had. Now that I am older I comprehend the magnitude of their sacrifices. When I hear the name Texas Woman’s University,
