Do any other colleges do Connections? Like where you write down interactions you’ve had with residents?

yes we’re required to do them for every resident during the first two weeks of moving in… which is nearly impossible tbh

Yes and the RAs advocated for ourselves saying it felt weird and like we were doing a psychology experiment on our residents and now we don’t have to do it anymore

We have “intentional conversations” and a form online where we write who was there and what we talked about. A lot of the RAs make a huge deal about it being weird or creepy but it takes like 5 seconds and you just ask how classes are going
