A Resident Assistant (RA) is a para-professional undergraduate student staff member who lives in on-campus housing and serves as a resource for the students in their assigned area of responsibility. RAs play a key role in creating an environment for students that is conducive to academic, personal, and social growth and development. An RA is a resource, mentor, community leader, and role model within the Residence Life community. They are trained to act in situations that may develop within the on-campus housing program and enforce community standards conducive to academic success. There are always RA’s on duty on campus between the hours of 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. each night.

Students interested in being an RA are encouraged to attend information sessions (dates & times TBD). Applicants must have a minimum 2.5 GPA and have no prior conduct issues that could prevent them from serving on the RA staff.
