Resident Evil

as a resident assistant. A resident assistant’s job is to supervise a floor or building of residents on a college campus. They are responsible for making sure that residents have a fun, healthy and safe college experience. As an RA, there are several meetings and events that one has to attend and plan, including a weekly module meeting, small group meetings with other RA and larger group meetings with all Residence Life staff. We also are required to plan monthly events for our residents…

opportunity the past two years to serve the Monmouth College community by being a residence life staff member. I have many assets that have contributed to the success of Grier Hall recently and would make good use of the opportunity to serve the residents as their HR. I enjoy working with new students at Monmouth College and aiding and encouraging them to become leaders on this campus as well. I have fine-tuned my skills and have become a respected authority within the hall while remaining…

I’ve made is that each of the (TR) try to connect with the resident so they can be engage and participate in the activity. I also observe how some of the TR staffs persuade the resident to join group activities. Another observation I made is when my supervisor does a particular group activity like crosswords. She would try to get some of the residents to participants by giving clues or hints for specific answer in order for the resident to figure out the answer. Moreover, I have observed that…

Known as the “Vanishing Island”, Isle de Jean Charles is located in Louisiana and is quickly eroding due to climate change and rising waters from the current pipelines-- it has been called home to residents for over one hundred and seventy years, and the island is vanishing from underneath them. Vaughn-Lee, the director, composed this New York Times op-doc in hopes to reach out to society about the matters that are taking place in Isle de Jean Charles, so authority could take action of the…

being an RA, “Why did you apply to be an RA?”. By working in a first year community, I strive to create a knowledgeable and approachable presence of myself for all residents of Campus Village 2 so they can learn and explore what SJSU has to offer them. I understand my role as a resource and take advantage as a way to expose residents to opportunities of student involvement and concepts to assist through their academics. Whether a first year considers to change their major or not, does not change…

depressing ambiance of the nursing home led me to believe that the home was for people with lower or limited income. If the nursing home was making money, it was not being spent to make the building look inviting or comfortable for visitors or residents. The look of unhappiness from the people living there could be the lack of attention from the caretakers as well as the lack of visitors. I recalled the man in the lunchroom asking for water and being ignored. I also thought of Emma and how she…

only learn from experience and mistakes. However, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to not put oneself down because of one’s mistake. Therefore, as a third year community adviser, one of my top goals is to show my colleague, peers, and residents that making mistakes is a part of learning and growing. I want to show them that it’s important to reflect on our mistakes, take ownership of it, learn from it, and not put ourselves down because of it. Furthermore, I feel that as a new…

citizens with the optimal health and happiness as promised, rather it is to control, manipulate, and condition citizens to conform to the Society’s way. This idea is demonstrated through the numerous references to artifacts that belong to some of the residents of Oria. Their symbolism not only aids in revealing the Society’s underlying motives but also demonstrates how the artifacts bring a sense of security and comfort to their…

The strategy is to give the residents who cannot walk to the dining room independently, the chance to do so with help from the staff. The program not only allows for a natural dining experience for the resident, but it also provides a form of regular exercise for the ones who aren’t already participating in physical therapy or have been discharged from therapy. It gives the residents a form of physical activity while providing social interaction with other residents, which is good for the high…
