OK, so I just was at this entire day's worth of activities for students appplying to be RAs. Well, I noticed that a lot of people seemed fun and excited, but then I realized that many of them were not being themselves.
....if you are not actng like yourself, what are your chances of getting the job? FOr example, I noticed this one kid was REALLY being goofy and laughing and being social.....but everyday, I only ever see him with his girlfriend and thats it...
A lot of the RA's hired here at my school were completely fake. Then turned into super bitches when given their power. It was pathetic.

I'm freakin' epic.

Untrue. RA positions are serious positions, why fake your way through them? Granted they get it, but the Deans should see that fake isn't getting anyone anywhere. Then again colleges are just pathetic.

i don't know about your colleges but RA's get some nice discounts on room and board, free cable... it's not a bad gig
I think it'd be tough to distinguish between prospective RA's who are really friendly and ones who are just faking it (I've seen some ridiculously out of control friendly people who i'd think were faking it if i didn't know them)
