The Life of a CC


There are a few simple steps to becoming a CC at SCSU. The first step is deciding you want to be one, once you have decided you can move on to attaining that goal. Step two; you must have lived on campus for a year for the simple fact that you have to know what you’re doing and be able to give advice. Step three; you need to simply apply. After that you will have two interviews, the first a group interview and the second is individual.
            Being a CC however comes with plenty of responsibilities. You have to be a good influence and leader for your residence hall while enforcing all school policies. If someone is breaking the rules it is their responsibility to do something about it. They must create a community by hosting programs and getting to know everyone. They are also in charge of health and safety by inspecting rooms twice a month to make sure there are no rules being broken and your room is clean. This also goes for the halls and bathrooms. They also have duty nights once a week from 7pm to 2am at the front desk. They also have the option of attending hall counsel because that’s where their funding comes from for their programs.
            You may be asking “What do I get out of it?” The answer is you get plenty of benefits such as free housing. That’s huge! That saves thousands of dollars. It is also a job meaning you get paid on top of it. You also get the privilege of making programs and activities for your hall. So you are given money to create a fun activity with food! You also develop new and better relationships with the staff members. That can serve very useful.
