Job Summary

Facilitate a pleasant, safe and clean atmosphere so residents can have positive academic, spiritual and social development.

What you'll do in this position:

Student and Community Development

Community Development:
  • As students live away from home in a community setting, they must learn to respect others' needs and expectations, voice their own expectations and concerns about community life, and resolve differences and conflicts peacefully. Hall advisors have a major responsibility for facilitating community development as part of this learning process. Hall advisors participate in extensive community development training to prepare to help communities develop. They learn about the role of the community in student development, natural community progression, developing healthy communities, and facilitating dialogue between individuals. Hall advisors also learn about community standards, a program developed to help residents learn to live in a healthy community. Throughout the year, residents meet in apartment, floor, and hall groups with the resident assistants to establish standards for their living community. Residents also develop goals for their community and establish ways to approach concerns about community life. Resident assistants teach residents about living in a community and act as facilitators in the community standards process. Hall advisors play a vital role by preparing R.A.s to facilitate community development, and by continuing to teach and support R.A.s throughout the process.
Student Behavior:
  • Hall advisors act as resources, coordinate services, meet with, and help mentor students with problems, concerns, and inappropriate behavior. Hall advisors have the responsibility to educate residents, schedule and attend interviews with students, work closely with area managers and directors to resolve student behavioral issues.

6. Interpret and disseminate Housing Guidelines to residents.

Supervise Resident Assistants

Programming:
  • Hall advisors work closely with resident assistants, hall and floor council members, and train them in their roles. They continue to meet with these groups on a regular basis to advise them on how to provide events that meet student needs. Such programs might include Safety education, conflict resolution skills, relaxation techniques, test taking skills, missionary deferment, contract release information, meeting approved housing criteria, healthy relationships, declaring a major, campus resources, social events, etc.
