Student Staff Conference!

The Residence Life professional staff members (the five ACs, Pamela and Charlie) are members of a group called the Associated Twin Cities College Housing Administrators (or "ATCCHA").

Each year, ATCCHA sponsors a day-long conference for student staff members from all over the metro area. This conference brings together students from several campuses to share ideas, talk about the challenges and rewards of being a staff member, and to have some fun. This is really a great event and it's an opportunity to develop some leadership skills that will help you be an even better RA or JC. (This year it's titled an "RA Conference," but it's for ALL student staff members!)

This year's conference is on Saturday, February 6, 2010. This is at the very end of interim break, just before second semester starts. We'll pay your registration fee and will organize transportation.

If you are thinking of applying to be an SHC or SRA for 2010-11, I highly encourage you to attend if you are able! A couple of our returning staff this year attended last February and had a great time!

Please send me an email to let me know if you are interested (email potts@stolaf.edu). The registration is due very soon, so I'll be in touch again with a reminder and to get a final list of those interested in attending. Let me know if you have any questions, or talk to your AC about it. Please let me know if you want to attend by contacting me by Wednesday, January 13 (that's in two days...)
