Student employment is a growing trend, with over half of college students working while attending school. Recognizing that Resident Assistant (RA) roles are campus employment opportunities with attractive compensation, these positions often draw in students who come from historically underrepresented racial and socioeconomic backgrounds. While some studies highlight the benefits of the RA role, this session will explore nuances of Black RAs experience regarding expectations and work functions. This webinar will provide actionable recommendations to housing departments and campus leaders.
