How did ResidentAssistant.com Get Started?
ResidentAssistant.com was started in December of 1998. The purpose of the website is to provide an additional resource to augment the resources RAs have available to them at their institutions. ResidentAssistant.com also serves as a tool to connect RAs everywhere, allowing them to share ideas, information and advice. ResLifePro.com (formerly ResidenceHallDirector.com) was added to the site to provide more resources to Residence Life Professionals. Who I am: My name is Dan Oltersdorf, and I am a speaker, author and consultant in Higher Education. I've had the opportunity to work with numerous colleges and universities around the country, providing training services, consulting, online resources, and publications. My experience: I was an RA and worked in Orientation as an undergraduate Colorado State University, where I received a degree in Human Development and Family Studies. I then served as a Hall Director at Florida State University, where I received my master's degree in Higher Education. I then moved on to the University of Miami, where I had the opportunity to run one of the residential colleges in that system. I now work with colleges and universities all over the country to help them to enhance their residence life programs through speaking, consulting, training and resources. As Residence Life Staff members, we have a wonderful opportunity to positively influence the lives of students. I hope this helps you to find ways to do your job better and grow personally as you continue to have an impact on the lives of your residents!
