Recommended: The importance of college life

I am interested in becoming an RA because I want to help people and make their college experience one to remember. My sister, Madison McCutcheon, was an RA here for four years and I loved hearing about the impact she made on her residents. I want to be there for the residents and address any issues they may be having or simply to check in and make sure they’re doing alright. College is supposed to be the time of our lives and any lingering problems can cause the experience to become unpleasant. As an RA, I would try to make my residents’ experiences as positive as it can be so that they enjoy this time in their lives. 1. Please identify at least one issue students face today and how you could address it as an RA? Some students have trouble

  • Resident Assistant Research Paper

    I believe the role of the Resident Assistant is to first be a witness of a hard-working student, a committed friend, and a leader at Holy Cross College. The importance of being a hard-working student as an RA is to set expectations in your floor or dorm high in terms of effort towards a cultivation of the mind because that is the main reason we go to college. However, I feel the most important aspect is to be a committed friend.
