Become an RA
Your Adventure Starts Here!
Do you want to shape the residence hall experience for others? Resident Assistants (RAs) help their fellow students make their Missouri STATEment and create a welcoming community where students feel like they belong.
The residence hall experience is a crucial aspect of college life, especially for incoming students. RAs help build community within the residence halls by planning educational, academic and social activities; by fostering relationships with residents; and by encouraging campus involvement.
Some RAs specifically work with a living-learning community to foster student growth and development. They encourage faculty-student interactions as well as campus involvement. Check out the living-learning communities Missouri State has to offer.
What does it take?
Being an RA takes leadership, initiative, and organization. It is a great opportunity for you to further develop your leadership skills, get involved on campus, and make lifelong friends. Check out our links below to learn more information about this exciting leadership opportunity.
