Rising to New Heights

 

Welcome to the King's College Office of Residence Life Staff web site. As a residence life staff member you truly make a profound difference in the lives you come in contact with on a daily basis. As a staff member you wear many hats and have many responsibilities that include being a role model, a community builder, a friend and a helper, just to name a few. Therefore, through this site, we hope to make your job easier by providing you with easy access to helpful hints and information, additional links and an online report system.

Most importantly, thank you for all that you do! Always remember that your enthusiasm is contagious and you can make it spread like an epidemic - why??? Because you are leaders. Leaders have the biggest impact on peoples lives. A leader sets expectations. A leader helps young people move to the next level. A leader shapes attitudes. A leader is a teacher and a teacher touches eternity. And how do you do that? By helping your residents reach their goals and by helping them understand what they can do to make a difference. Best wishes in your position, in the community that you build and the lives that you touch.

 

"When an individual, starts out to build a world,
They start with themselves…
Then the mind starts seeking a way.
Then the hand seeks other hands to help…
Then the dream becomes not one person's dream,
but a community dream…
Not my world alone
But your world and my world
Belonging to all the hands who build."


- Langston Hughes
