RAS battle bugs, noise but find job rewarding Cockroaches, mice and bats are just a few of the problems that the resident advisors handle on their wings. They also fill out form after form, quiet their boisterous residents and plan evenings full of excite- ment for all. The duties of the RA aren ' t all fun and games, but as a whole, their job is as versatile as it is self- rewarding. Being an RA gives me a real chance to know people, Bus. Ad. junior Kevin Nemetz said. I feel ap- preciated by my residents and because of it, I feel that I ' m a better person. With the addition of coed housing, life in the dorms was not as quiet as it once was, especially in Kiewit Hall. But Arts junior Kathy Mondrella doesn ' t seem to mind. Coed housing has really brought a unity to the campus as well as the dorm life, Mondrella said. The functions we have are more natural and people make friends faster. Before the start of the year, all RAs met at the O ' Donnell Center for a workshop. At the workshop, they became familiar with the duties and respon- sibilities of their job. We try and communicate the standards of the university at the workshop, and in the last few years have had more participation from the group. West Quad Director Sue Wilcox said. Despite phone calls at 4 a.m. and regardless of the desk duties on the night of Fall Frolics, some RAs have personally gained from the experience. Lisa O ' Byrne said that the knowledge she has gained from her contacts with other people, both stu- dents and administration is one thing she appreciates about the job. If nothing else, you learn a lot about yourself. Arts junior Laura Muus said. Through other people I ' ve been able to see myself in a different light — by what other people see in me, Muss said.
