Returning PA Information

Eligibility

  • All previous PAs can apply for the role.
  • There will be 4 PA returners for each house which will allow all houses to essentially have 8 peer supporters in total with the exception of Bechtel/Avery which will have 10.

Selection

  • The PA Advisors will initially screen the applications (reserving the right to remove applications of those who have performed poorly in the role in the past).
  • The remaining applications will then be made available to the PAAC. The PAAC will then meet with their house/residence committee (RAs + 3 students) to choose the returners for the house/residence.
  • The houses/residence will have the opportunity to give feedback through a survey.

Expectations

  • We expect all returning PAs to be living in the house for which they are a resource.
  • All returning PAs will be required to meet with their house RAs on a bi-weekly basis (1 returning PA from each house will be expected to attend the bi-weekly meetings with the new PAs so they can pass on any new information to the others).
  • Office Hours for returning PAs (Lunch or 4pm-5pm) TBD.
