Section 3.7: Staff Meetings

To help ensure consistent communication and opportunities to connect with fellow staff members, RAs are expected to attend regular staff meetings. These meetings typically include discussions surrounding community development, programming, updates on Residence Life initiatives, and campus events, while also having time to bond with other staff.

Meetings are generally held on Tuesday evenings from 8:00-10:00pm. The official time and location of these meetings is determined by the supervisor and will be communicated in advance.

• During the first week of each block, staff meet with the other members of their building/area team. They collaborate on program planning, discussing building issues, and team building.
• The second week of each block is normally reserved for an all-staff in-service meeting. 
• The third week off each block is department committee time. RAs will meet with their cross-campus Res Life committee and work toward specific goals that benefit the Res Life department and the mission and values of the College as a whole. There are several committees and RAs may preference their interest in any particular one by speaking with their supervisor.
• Typically there are no staff meetings held during the fourth week of the block to allow staff to focus on their finals. However supervisors can convene a meeting during this time if they believe it is necessary to do so, and communicate it in advance.
