Eighteen Southwest Baptist University students have been chosen as resident assistants for the 2007-2008 school year.
New RAs for next semester include junior Andrew Phillips, Maupin Hall; freshman Sara Weldy, Memorial Hall; sophomore Marita McCampbell, sophomore Ellen Scheidhauer and freshman Kristie Bicket, Beasley Hall; sophomore Hope Foster, freshman Clara Madden, sophomore Shannon Kirkpatrick and freshman Ashley Hodges, Leslie Hall; freshman Matt Clair and sophomore Joel Driskell, Landen Hall; junior Ashley Chapman, sophomore Becca Knight and freshman Rachelle Zuercher, Woody Hall; junior Jordan Hicks and freshman Caleb Westbrook, Gott Hall, and junior Amy Calvert and senior Stacey Minshall, campus apartments.
Plaster Lodge and Meyer Hall have not chosen new RAs at this time.
Amy Welch, director of Residence Life, says changes will be made in RA programming requirements.
"Residence Life will be changing our programming efforts to focus more heavily on civic engagement, leadership and character development and social awareness in the residence halls," said Welch. "It is our goal to help students become more cognizant of the world and culture in which we live and to provide more opportunities to serve others in the community and in society.
"By taking the focus off of self and focusing on serving others, can we grow and learn about the needs of our community and the world. It is better to give than to receive."
"Residence Life will also be changing RA requirements in programming," said Welch. "Each Resident Assistant will be required to invite one faculty or staff member to share (testimony, hobby, educational workshop, etc.) on their floor each semester."
