  • maintaining a positive working relationship with the RHD, showing respect for him/her as a supervisor and a person.
  • being respectful of all Lipscomb University students, faculty, staff, and administration. This includes refraining from participation in gossip concerning residents, RAs, RHDs, and/or other Lipscomb faculty/staff with hall residents, other RAs, or my supervisor and considering the time, place, and manner in which they engage in conversations.
  • working collaboratively with fellow teammates and RHD.
  • complying with all work related requests in a timely manner.
  • ensuring that students understand my role and function as an RA and establishing a rapport, which makes residents feel comfortable approaching me with ideas and concerns.
  • making residents aware of their roles and responsibilities in the community, explaining and utilizing the Community Contract. RAs will enforce policies consistently without bias or malice.
  • keeping residents informed of campus and hall activities.
  • conducting hall/floor meetings at the request of the RHD.
  • supporting and attending all dorm-wide programming, and supporting teammates programming.
  • upholding and adhering to all university policies (Student Code of Conduct and Residence Life Housing Rules). RAs understand that being a student leader requires them to be mindful of all university guidelines, and they commit to upholding those expectations.
  • educating residents about the Student Code of Conduct while serving as a role model and leading by example.
  • fulfilling programming requirements as set by the RHD and Director of Residence Life.

  • RAs understand that lobby duty responsibilities rotate among staff members. Duty begins at 8 pm and ends at midnight Sunday-Thursday and 8 pm - 1 am Friday and Saturday.
  • RAs arrive on-time and will sit at the lobby desk for their entire shift.
  • RAs will notify the RHD of time away from campus and will clear all vacation/travel plans ahead of time before making any reservations.
  • RAs will attend the weekly meetings on Monday nights as set by my RHD. They will arrive on time and will not let personal things (e.g., relationships, concerts, etc.) interfere with their commitment to their residents, teammates, and RHD. RAs will come to meetings prepared with any materials needed.

Holidays, Breaks, and Closing
  • RAs understand that they share responsibility for helping close down the residence halls and opening them during breaks (e.g. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring Break).
    Administrative Duties
  • RAs will maintain all paperwork/forms in a systematic and consistent fashion (e.g., Room Checks, Room Inventory Sheets, Programming Logs, Maintenance Forms, etc.)
