Resident Assistants, Student Affairs seek to repair staff CONTINUED from page 1 Faced with the task of replacing a sizable por tion of their staff, the Residence Life coordinators are turning to the Resident Assistant wait list to fill open positions. This list is comprised of some students who had completed the three-credit train ing course, but did not secure a position. Due to the size of last year’s class, the wait list will be more than deep enough to replace those who were let go, claims Miller. “We are not rushing into the decision,” he says. “We want to make sure that we put the best team Democrats Organize CONTINUED from page 1 This means that in the past couple of years, fewer students received grants, nursing students and edu cators received less money, as did adults involved in job training programs Since current Erie County Senator, Jane Earll, is a member of the PHEAA board of directors, Purvis is holding her partially accountable for many of the poor decisions PHEAA has made. Not only does Purvis plead for Pennsylvanians to vote Earll out of office in the upcoming election, she demands, “Jane Earll must resign!” The press conference closely follows the release of an audit earlier this August that Jack Wagner, Pennsylvania’s Auditor General, conducted to investigate PHEAA’s expenses from July 2004 through June 2007. Along with Cindy Purvis, Wagner also suggests cutting the legislators from the board of directors. Currently, 16 out of the 20 Mongottan ted Ortn(« 6<Mf ... n /S— ) Ho**** 4f» ... ».lf Friday, August 29, 2008 possible on the field.” Whether or not the players of that team know what they’re walking into is another story. While Residence Life will introduce the replacement RAs to their residents as soon as possible, a rocky transition is inevitable for new employees. Like RAs currently holding a position, the incoming RAs will not be made aware of the circumstances that led to their appointment. Remaining RAs are also feeling the strain. Some floors have been left completely devoid of leadership, leaving it to other Resident Assistants in the building to assume a surrogate position for the affected students. The entire process has left many residents feel ing confused; however, the same could be said for those expected to lead them. “After this past week,” one RA said of the ten sion throughout Residence Life, “we are all trying to do exactly what they want us to.” board members have legislative positions. Wagner hopes to include instead economic leaders in the community, college and university presidents, and one full-time student. Joshua Snyder, President of College Democrats, is disappointed in the PHEAA scandal. “It’s an out rage,” he says of the organization that spent money on internal affairs while cutting grants to students across the state. He hopes that Behrend students will get more involved in issues like this, along with state Senate and local campaigns as well as the presidential for students to learn more about local politics. They are staying focused on continued support for the Obama campaign in the Erie region. “We look forward to having Barack Obama back on campus a second time,” says College Democrats Vice President Chris Alphen.
