1.) Why do you believe the RES Hawk Experience and the learning goals: Well-Being, Identity, Inclusive Communities, Take Action and Global Context are important to our residential community?

All those attributes and experiences are skills that people need to develop, live, and used in their everyday life. When these certain skills are mastered I believe that the community itself can take on any challenge that comes in their way.

2.) Describe the best experience you have had with a University Official (an RA, CD, faculty, etc.

I am grateful to experience what it is like to have an extraordinary employer. Not many people can say they had the chance to work for someone who is not only a strong leader, but an exceptional mentor. I had the pleasure of working as a Residential Assistance for Mr. Joseph at Florida Memorial University for a year, and I could not have asked for a better experience. His dedication and passion for the students at Florida Memorial University was refreshing and uplifting. In Residential Life, our main focus was the residence’s housing experience; however, Mr. Joseph sincerely cared about each student’s wellbeing and success.

Resident Assistants serve many purposes and play many roles in the community. They help to build and promote a supportive and active community within their residence hall and across the campus, and offer support and guidance to their residents. This aids in making Geneseo feel more like home and a community rather than simply a school. RAs enforce Geneseo and Department of Student Life rules, while also being a more easily accessible and less intimidating resource to other students in need of help. I want to be an RA so that I can become more involved in the Geneseo community in a positive way, by helping and representing other students.
