Resident Assistants are paraprofessionals who oversee the Buffalo Seminary houses on Sundays, from 12:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. (occasional Saturdays). RAs encourage and support students in academic and personal growth by fostering awareness, appreciation, and development of skills to succeed in a diverse, global society. Finally, RAs are role models within their communities, demonstrating responsibility and ethical behavior. Duties of the RA role include facilitation of the house rules and community, transportation and participation in weekend events, administrative functions, and upholding Sem's policies. RAs are community leaders, educators, counselors, friends, change agents, advisors, policy enforcers and team players. A clean New York State driver's license is required.
If hired as an RA, you will play a critical role in shaping residential students' lives within the house and involving them in their community. The demands on RAs are complex, but the material and non-material benefits are extremely rewarding. The RA position may very well be one of the toughest jobs you'll ever love.
Applicants should send a cover letter and resume by email or post to Kim Trow, Assistant to the Head of School at humanresources@buffaloseminary.org or 205 Bidwell Parkway, Buffalo, NY 14222.
