The Role of the Residential Assistant

The role of the Residential Assistant (RA) plays an important part in the CCA residential community in advancing the mission of the department, enhancing the residential curriculum, and improving the residential student experience at CCA. They are your peers, your fellow community members, and a resource during your time living in the halls. Residents will be able to connect with their RAs during move-in day and throughout the academic year through programs and events, including community meetings. The RA on-duty phone number is only for active residential students to support lockout after-hours and residential emergencies.

The RA team also help keep our residential community safe, by educating residents on our residential community standards, the student code of conduct, and additional campus policies listed in the Student Handbook. If you have any questions regarding these policies, please contact your assigned RA or email housingdining@cca.edu.

Maggie - Founders Hall

Third Year Individualized Major

What advice would you give residents living in the residential halls or what’s fun about living in the residential halls?

One of the best things about living in the residence halls is becoming a part of a diverse community. Living in a place where your roommates, friends, and residents are painters, designers, sculptors, filmmakers, animators, etc. gives students exposure to many different fields and professions. It enables students to build global life-long connections with students from across the world.

Take advantage of the campus — the access to the cafe and it’s amenities, the TV’s in the common room, and closeness to you’re classrooms/studios are there for you! Living on campus becomes like a little “pre-real-life” game — you still get your independence while having the support of staff and closeness to friends!

What advice would you give residents living in the residential halls or what’s fun about living in the residential halls?

Living and breathing the same air with amazing future artist. Finding out there's no wrong way to express yourself. Most importantly, not having to go up a big hill for class (unless its part of a field trip then the view is worth it).
