Resident Assistant Interest Sessions for 2021-22 Start This Week

University Housing invites undergraduate students returning to campus next fall to apply to be resident assistants, or RAs. 

The RA role is one of a community facilitator and role model, providing leadership and assisting residents in developing a positive community environment throughout the building.

The RA program is part of the overall educational activity and programming provided by University Housing and helps educate the RAs on a variety of issues relevant to student housing and student affairs among other areas.

This employment opportunity provides student leaders with tangible skills that are transferrable to many career fields, aiding them with resume development and interview experience.

A positive learning environment is one where active learning takes place through RA-facilitated opportunities for faculty and resident interaction, seeking resident involvement and creating a sense of community among residents.
