Head RA for Mudge house


Description

During my senior year of college I became the head RA for Mudge House at Carnegie Mellon.

Responsibilities

  • Supervise a team of 10 RAs and 300+ first year residents

Lessons Learned

  • The quickest way to gain influence is to genuinely care about others
  • Be yourself – those who are not are quickly sniffed out
  • Consistency matters
  • Some people will never be friends but a non-combative middle ground always exists
