Resident Assistant
Indianapolis, Indiana, United States
As an RA, I am responsible for creating a positive living environment for over thirty first year residents, often resolving conflicts. I implement and enforce Butler’s campus living politics, motivating them to begin building connections within the community, such as promoting academic excellence, addressing student needs, and encouraging extracurricular involvement. I create, market, and lead student centered hall programs which promote social, education, diversity, mental and physical health, and growth. I communicate, correspond, and collaborate with on and off campus resources, such as Counseling and Career Services, maintenance, and health clinics. I also budget and track money used for unit program events, and assist in the selection, evaluation, and training of incoming resident assistance.
