RA of the Month: November

The West Area Wolfpack is proud to have Tannen Smith representing us as the West Area RA of the Month for November!

Let's hear from his nominator, Amy Gardner:



"Every time I walk onto the Ground floor of Hess, I see residents mingling in the study lounge or playing video games. Tannen always has his door open to be available to the amazing community he has built on his floor. Community Builders are a frequent occurrence on the floor with a weekly academic initiative of “Study Group Sunday.” The floor comes together each week to work on homework and study for any upcoming exams they may have. Educational components are not forgotten with events like “Cookies and Credit Scores” to inform residents about credit and how important it is even if they are only freshman. 

Tannen creates a warm environment on the floor while remaining approachable and upbeat by having his door open. His residents absolutely adore him and love spending time with him. A few of his residents are applying to be RAs for the upcoming year. 

Not only is he an incredible RA, he is a devoted member of our RA team; always willing to help out with a project, spend time with others, and be a positive role model for the staff. We are so lucky to have him in Hess Hall."

Congratulations, Tannen, and keep up the great work!
