"Pure and without knowledge of the worth of a Resident Assistant."
This is when the seed is planted and nourished by the RA and RD to develop strong roots.
This semester has marked a fresh beginning for a lot of us. Many of you have made new years resolutions (and have hopefully kept up with them!), set new goals for yourself, and have taken on new challenges that will hopefully make you into a better person! This phrase above is essentially part of this new ideal of not only being an RA but truly understanding what it is and why you do it, why we are here as reslife in general. This semester in one on ones and during staff meetings I want to push you to step out of your comfort zone, to try new things, to really challenge yourself. Remember this is a safe space. I am here to help and support you and so is your staff! Take a chance and lead the program, believe in yourself when you present your word and theme for the week, speak up in discussions. We're here to catch you if you fall and help fix the mistakes!
