SEAHO Report - Spring 2017 - 19
SEAHO Features
approved bringing in a consultant from Clausen's camp experience to discuss leadership development and
facilitate team building during Graduate Resident training. This change would allow Graduate Residents to
be familiar with strategies to better support their students and help them help Residence Coordinators in the
implementation of an alternative RA and House Council program.
Second Fruits
After training our staff and implementing during Formal RA Training 2016, we anecdotally noticed that our
communities seemed closer, warmer, and more cohesive. Returning RAs commented about how much more
engaging training was and how more connected with teammates they felt than in previous years. Towards the
end of the semester, we again administered the RFS and what we found was encouraging. When looking at our
questions and the percentage of response with the best answer (e.g. Strongly Agree), we saw a marked difference
in 2016 compared to relatively the same response the two previous years. The graph below shows the increase.
Conclusion
Our overall concept and new approach to RA leadership development through experiential learning positively
impacted their ability to develop meaningful relationships with their residents. We were able to show significant
improvement in student sense of belonging and community connection, thus closing the gap between our
first-year student experience and our west campus sophomore experience. Our next step will be to continue to
enhance our current approach and monitor satisfaction, involvement, and behavioral trends.
