Editorial 17 The Carroll News www.jcunews.com Jan. 24, 2013 Editorial D(RA)ma Employees from the Office of Residence Life, who pre- ferred to remain anonymous, confirmed Res Life’s decision to decrease the compensation package for RAs, beginning next academic year. According to the JCU website, RAs currently receive full room and board, a stipend of roughly $30 every two weeks, a 10 percent discount at the JCU Bookstore and a free resident parking permit. Despite suspicions that these cuts are being made because of the Murphy Hall renovations, Res Life insisted that this is not the case and that RA compensation is being changed to match that of local universities like Baldwin Wallace University and Case Western Reserve University. The change is expected to affect the number of applica- tions for next year. Some current RAs said they will be forced to leave their positions due to these pay cuts. These changes are certainly discouraging to students who seek the benefits of being a resident assistant, which requires not only a great deal of work but also an overall “ higher standard of behavior and leadership. Being a resident assistant is a full-time job, and RAs are a vital resource Cartoon by Nicholas Sciarappa to the student body and the entire University. Insufficient incentive to hold the position might result in an insufficient number of RAs. NOTABLE QUOTABLE Resident assistants are still being compensated gener- ously. Nevertheless, these sudden changes are forcing some “This generation of Americans has been tested by crises that students to leave their positions because they can no longer steeled our resolve and proved our resilience.
