Head Resident Advisors

The Head Resident position is in its third year at Hamilton, so it is still in its forming stages, but has proved very successful so far! This position was created to lend support to the residential areas of campus that have a lot of RAs and also to provide a liason between the Assistant Directors of that area and the RA staff. HRs assist the RAs and also coordinate the development of community in their living area. The HR's main responsibility is to support the staff in the area, advise and supervise programming in the area, and be a leader overall on the RA staff both in the area they work with and also on the whole RA staff. HRs get the opportunity to be involved closely with staff selection and placement, training, team building, evaluating, and working with maintenance issues.

Head Residents are returning RAs who are typically juniors or seniors. There are currently three Head Resident positions. The locations are:

Megan Herman - 100 College Hill Road, Bundy East, Bundy West, Skenandoa, Wallace Johnson and Wertimer House  (East Campus)

Lisa Fontes - Keehn, Major, McIntosh, Minor and Root (South Campus)

Cody Westphal - Dunham (North Campus)
