The RAs must be enrolled at the Duke Marine Lab and are expected to live on campus and be available at times when faculty and staff are not present, i.e., primarily nights and weekends. The role of the RA is that of an advisor to the undergraduate students in matters of student life and emergencies. The RAs will assist in planning and implementing co-curricular activities on campus. In addition the RAs will organize a Residential Council of students, and will serve on that Council.

The co-RAs will each receive a 60% reduction on room and board as payment for their services.

All applicants will be considered equally for the co-RA positions. To apply please submit (preferably by email) the following by December 4, to Lauren Stulgis (Lauren.Stulgis@duke.edu; 252-504-7531):

• A statement summarizing your skills and qualifications for the position. Tell us why you think you’d be a good RA. If appropriate, specifically include examples of your experience planning events, coordinating volunteers, handling difficult or stressful situations, and serving in leadership roles.

• Two non-academic letters of recommendation from persons who have personal knowledge of you (professionals not your peers). Letters should address your interpersonal skills, ability to deal with crises, creativity, etc.

• Please note what travel courses you plan to take in your statement.
