Student Leader Profile - Ciara Maxwell

SIU Residence Life has some great things going on, and we want to showcase some of our proud moments on our blog. We also hope people considering working in RA, graduate assistant, or full-time positions with our department will take a minute to learn more about the things we are doing. More information about our department, including position descriptions, application information, and graduate and full-time staff profiles can be found on our recruitment website.

Today's student leader spotlight features Ciara Maxwell. Ciara is a resident of Neely Hall and a student employee with Residence Hall Dining.

My name is Ciara Maxwell, and I am from Memphis, TN. 

My major is Biological Sciences, and Pre-Physical Therapy is my track. 

My favorite part about living in the residence halls is that I am always informed of things going on around campus. Also, I get to meet someone new every week since these are large buildings.

Tuesday Night Zumba on the first night was a great memory. We had a room full of different people that were enjoying themselves. 

One of my favorite quotes is by Benjamin Franklin,"Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn." 

The best study spot would be either my desk or the lower level of Trueblood.

Along with being in 3 RSOs, I also work for University Housing Dining.
