Resident Assistant Nomination Request

Ongoing through December 2017
Did you know that the Office of Residence Life has approximately 268 Resident Assistants? Each year we welcome many student leaders into our department seeking to foster positive community relationships in the residence halls and apartment communities. To identify the best of the best, we look to our campus partners to do so. Please consider nominating a student you feel has the capacity to serve our students as a resident assistant via the link below.

Alternative Breaks are unique multi-day immersion experiences focused on important community needs. Based on last year's participant feedback, the Office of Community Engagement & Service is expanding the program for spring break 2018. We will be offering a similar 3-day local program while also offering a 6-day non-local trip. We are also look for two student co-Site Leaders to lead each trip!

If you work with any students who are passionate about community needs and looking for an opportunity to lead their peers in service, please encourage them to apply now to be a Site Leader on the OCES website!

Miami University SAHE Master's Program Prospects


Dear colleagues, a
s
 we begin planning for interview days in February 2018, we need your assistance in identifying outstanding prospective students for Miami University's SAHE master's program. In an effort to reach out to historically marginalized students, who might not otherwise have access to or information about our program, we are soliciting your help. We are looking to identify racial/ethnic minority students, first-generation college students, LGBTQ+ identified students, and low-income students who may benefit from a personal invitation. Please visit SAHE Recruitment Nomination Form to be directed to the form.  
Please click this link to fill out the Hub form to request Spring 2018 Late Night Miami event funding.

Questions? Please reach out to StudentActivties@miamioh.edu!

Student Affairs Intranet 

Student Affairs will soon have a staff member Intranet, for internal communication and resource-sharing in Student Affairs. We are looking now for early adopters to help us populate the site with missing resources (you'll see lots of gaps currently!) and expand the current offerings. 
New ideas? Missing resources? Etc? Email Jen O'Brien (obrienjc@miamioh.edu) or Tim Kresse (kressetj@miamioh.edu) to submit ideas. 

Tech Tip of the Week
From Jen O'Brien
TIP: Unsubscribe from unnecessary emails directly through Gmail. 
WHY: We all get those mass listserv emails that have zero relevance to our work or life, right? Sometimes we're lucky enough to find the "unsubscribe" button at the very bottom of the email in microscopic font size. Sometimes, the button just isn't there. Gmail to the rescue, once again!
HOW? Click the little dropdown arrow next to the sender's name. If the email is part of list that provides the ability to unsubscribe, the link for unscribing will be in the pop up window, toward the bottom. Upon selection, you'll be prompted to unsubscribe. Note that you will be unsubscribing from that particular list, not blocking the sender entirely.
Here are some screenshots for demonstration purposes only (I did not actually unsubcribe to this email!):
