A Residence Fellow (RF) is a role model, front-line resource helper, developer of communities, and leader for the students on their floor and the overall residence community. Under the direction of their Residence Manager, the Residence Fellow must have a commitment to creating a community that is conducive to learning, academic success, and personal growth and development. The Residence Fellow achieves this community in part through interaction with students on an informal and formal basis with residents (group settings and one-on-one connections) and by educating students about the Residence Standards.
This position requires resilience as it entails a commitment to a high volume of student support, learning to articulate rights and responsibilities for both the individual and the University, and balancing their own academic and personal responsibilities. This position should be viewed as a lifestyle commitment.
