Do you want roommate or not want roommate?

I doubt. It would be boring for RAs to stay in the same dorm for two years.

Many RAs tend to work for only one year. Several RAs work for two years and it is rare that the RAs work for three years.

I worked as SRA for 1 1/2 years which was enough for me.

I cannot tell you what I got e mail from name. This is from House assistant.

Just tell you that R is first name and last name is G. I can't tell you name. This alldeaf that I cannot tell what name is. I hope you know.

You means RA changing the dorm to work or quit after 1-2 years?

scottw · 07-30-2008, 07:37 PM

It didn't matter if I have roommate or not. Up to Residence decide. Not me. I not bother for more years.

I can stay as long I want to and no change dorm room.

scottw · 07-31-2008, 03:15 PM

I got e mail and Campus Housing finally roommate with me.

Wooohooo

alot RA tends quit in one year cuz of busy with school, sports, no party, bored, etc... but few RAs can patient work for 4 to 5 years cuz of waived room fee...

She told me that he is wheelchair? That is disability. I'm not disability like wheelchair.

That is why I told you no.

to get single room qualify by age or wheelchair or medication reasons with must be approved from OSWD (Office of Students with Disabilities) and/or ur family doctor so u are close to 35 yrs old and might can get single room if its available but I doubt it cuz of too late to ask them

I think because of your age, North Ballard and West Ballard are usually for students who under 21, I think so.

Benson Hall is better than Ballard North/West, anyway.

I guess you are probably asking who the people are, right?

Cogswell of course is for Alice Cogswell, and her father Mason Cogswell.

Ballard is for Melville Ballard, he was the first person ever to graduate from Gallaudet. He received his degree in 1866. You can read about him here: Ballard Residential Complex - North & West - Gallaudet University

Krug is for Walter Krug, he graduated from Gallaudet in 1927. He was a faculty member and he was the "dean of men" for many years...was in charge of making sure the male students behaved and did well.

Benson is for Elizabeth Benson, she was a hearing person who was an interpreter, a faculty member, and the "dean of women" - same job that Krug had. The most famous dean of women was Elizabeth Peet, and Peet Hall is named for her. You can read about Elizabeth Benson here: Benson Hall - Gallaudet University
