Reslife in Summer

In Summer,

The school year is done and the question on people's mind is what does a RCD once the residents go?

A lot, my friends, a lot. 

For starters, though the students are summer vacation, we still live on the college campus...this is our permanent home while working at the university.

And for many this role is a 12-month position meaning that you are expected to work in the midst of the breaks. 

So here are a few things that you  may find someone with a live-in position might be doing in summer:
Working Summer School Housing 
Working with summer conferences - during the breaks of a school year many schools because conference sites for kids camps to adult groups for various reasons
Planning Training for the start of the school year 
Going through Training 
Preparing for the School Year
Meeting students during their summer orientation
And on occasion, taking a vacation or two before the school year starts.



In writing this post, this song from Disney's Frozen kept playing in my mind. 




Enjoy and until next time, I'm Rena in Reslife (in Summer).
