Resident Assistants (RAs) are student leaders, and key members of the Residential Life staff, that help to create inclusive and healthy communities on campus. Main areas of focus for RAs are community development, programming, and health & safety.

Time Commitment: RAs devote an average of 15 hours per week to the position and may take one weekend off every month. To ensure that the RA is available to residents and able to perform their duties, outside activities are limited to 15 hours a week (e.g. course overload, extracurricular activities, outside employment). 

Four Graduate Resident Directors (GRDs) oversee Clock Tower Commons, Medaille, Founders, Portka, Lyons, Breen, and programming. 

GRDs are liaisons between the Area Directors and Resident Assistants, providing guidance, support, and campus-wide emergency on-call coverage.

Summer Conference Assistants (SCAs) staff the residence halls and work to ensure that summer student and summer conference use of the residence halls and other facilities on campus goes smoothly by taking care of administrative, facility, customer service, safety, and other tasks. 

Our student office support team is essential in quality customer service, smooth office operations, and complete important tasks/initatives.
