Student Leader Testimonials

Alex Thambi, Resident Assistant
"As a first-year Resident Assistant in Black Residential Scholars living-learning communities. It is wonderful to be in a community with diverse backgrounds and being able to connect with residents."

Joellene Calderon, Academic Mentor
“Working as an Academic Mentor in housing has given me the opportunity to grow and develop my leadership and social skills. It is an experience that I am thankful I get to be a part of.”

Julio Saldivar, Hall Coordinator
“Housing has been an amazing experience for me to develop as a paraprofessional before I enter the post college world looking to start my career. As a Hall Coordinator, I have learned that housing requires a lot of time and attention in addition to my classes, but is manageable once you start learning the role over time.”
