Being a Resident Assistant has been by the far most rewarding experience I have had at Wright State University. The position has allowed me to enhance my organizational, interpersonal, time management, and academic skills in a way that I didn’t know was possible. Working with students and being a positive role model for the residents has become extremely fulfilling. I have grown as an individual and hopefully have helped some residents grow as well. In response to anyone who is curious about becoming a Resident Assistant, I would say that there is no experience as unique and enriching as this one!
