Resident Director Reflections

Connor Pass

Being a Resident Director means having the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in students' college experiences. This role has challenged me to grow as both a leader and an individual while building lasting connections with students and colleagues. One of the most rewarding parts of being an RD is knowing that even the smallest interactions can have a lasting impact on someone's college experience.

Being a Resident Director and graduate student at Salisbury University has truly changed my life for the better. Transitioning from a student leadership role to a professional role on campus has strengthened my confidence due to the influential role models and engaged students here at SU. Although working and studying Higher Education was intimidating at first, the University’s strong mission and curriculum have prepared me to serve my staff and residents effectively. I feel deeply respected as a student and staff, and have had amazing opportunities, such as serving on the Executive Board of the Graduate Student Council. Since my first day here at SU, I have felt comfortable being my authentic self as I continue to learn and grow. I am proud of the way I have honed my leadership style, managed conflicts and crises, and built strong relationships with staff and students across campus.
