429 Words2 Pages

Resident Assistants are like Jailers, and the Dorm seems like a prison. At least that was the case prior to the establishment of the Dorm Council. I’ve never lived in a Dorm before,which was my first experience that I had to share my space with roommates, strictly follow a pre-determined schedule, and be answerable to somebody outside of my family. After living one year in Dorm, I believed that some Dorm rules need to be changed.

Dorm Council was founded in order to meet boarding students’ needs. It is a such a pleasant surprise to me that Council members were willing to listen to my suggestions.

    If you were to ask me a year ago what the purpose of a resident assistant is, I probably would have said “to be the parent of the dorm.” While in many ways this statement is true, I know now that an RA's role extends deeper than the statement portrays. My second year of living on campus has allowed me to observe a few of the overlooked duties of an RA such as updating residents on resources through bulletin boards and maintaining discipline by enforcing quiet hours. Summarizing just a few of my observations, I can confidentially say that an RA's responsibility as a "parent" includes maintaining good order in the residence hall, maintaining a positive living environment, and promoting academic, personal and social growth among students.

    I spent the first 19 years of my life living in Camp Verde, Arizona which, according to the Arizona Department of Health Services, is a rural HPSA - Primary Care Health Professional Shortage Area. To ensure we were all healthy my mother greatly relied on the county health clinic and mobile clinics that offered free vaccinations and reduced cost health screenings. The most significant and challenging disadvantage I faced was our family’s socioeconomic status; my father made roughly 14,000-30,000 dollars a year supporting his four boys and wife. Food stamps, reduced lunch and unemployment benefits ensured that we were all fed and had shelter. My parents divorced and by 14 I was working after school and on the weekends to pay my mother rent.
