WHO ARE YOU?<br />
MATT PAGE<br />
RESIDENT ASSISTANT: UNIVERSITY VILLAGE SUITES 3000 BLDG<br />
WHAT DO YOU DO, AND WHERE DO YOU DO IT?<br />
I’m a Resident Assistant in the <strong>University</strong> Village Suites 3000 building. I live and work on a<br />
freshmen hall. Every day is different and a new challenge. I never know what they will ask me<br />
next. It could range from advice on their future major to how they should handle a situation<br />
with their roommates. I enjoy the spontaneity and the challenge that comes with it.<br />
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR JOB?<br />
My job gives me the opportunity to meet and learn from people from all walks of life. I<br />
find that everyone I meet, whether they are residents or part of the department, has<br />
something to offer. I can learn from them, gain a new outlook on life and put that new<br />
knowledge into practice to impact my residents.<br />
WHAT DO YOU DO IN YOUR FREE TIME?<br />
I’m a high school and middle school rowing coach, competitive rower, and slalom waterskier.<br />
The water is where I feel most relaxed and at home, and so I try to be on the water as<br />
much as possible. I also enjoy the challenge of designing and developing iPhone apps. I am<br />
always thinking of new, innovative app ideas that I can design to create a product that people<br />
will enjoy.<br />
WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST<br />
ABOUT KSU?<br />
It’s a growing university. Right now, we get the<br />
opportunity to be a part of it and have a voice in its<br />
future. With a proposed football team and a larger<br />
student base that is growing every year. This is very<br />
exciting to me because it is bringing a new culture to<br />
KSU. I can't wait for this to change the KSU culture.
