has been completed!

 

Welcome to the Residence Life Advisor Recruitment website!  Thank you for your interest in the RLA position. Please use this website as a reference to obtain information about the RLA position and the application process should you choose to apply.

The mission of the Lawrence University Department of Residence Life is to provide a safe, comfortable, living and learning environment which fosters the development of students. We accomplish this by promoting respect, empowering students to promote community, and advocating and adapting to the changing needs of students,

In order to accomplish this mission, the Department of Residence Life employs a number of  student staff members called Residence Life Advisors (RLAs).

Residence Life Advisors are upperclass students living within the residence halls who have demonstrated strong leadership capabilities.  RLAs strive to create a positive residential community by assisting fellow students as they work to establish friendships, enable them to feel at home in the halls and find their niche on campus.  Through programming and positive role modeling, they work to foster a living environment that addresses the basic needs of students within the halls.  Often RLAs are the primary source of information regarding campus policy and referrals.  Additionally RLAs work the hall front desks and serve in an in-hall duty rotation.

The Department of Residence Life appreciates you taking the time to consider the RLA position. Hopefully this website will assist you in answering any questions you may have.
