Part 2

Depression is something that is very common among society, and even more prevalent in a college setting, especially in a large institution like Arizona State University. Community Assistants, Peer Mentors, and dorm residents are all here for the same purpose- attend school and adjust to college, all while developing a strong relationship in the dorm community. Because the issue I am addressing pertains to college freshman living in the dormitories on campus, the ideal audience for my proposal would be Residential Hall Association. As stated on their website, RHA is “student-run organization here on campus. We seek to create the greatest residential experience here on the Tempe campus. Every resident is a member of RHA. We are here for all 7,000 residents, and provide for them through our four pillars: Leadership Development, Advocacy, Programming, and Regional Involvement” (“What Is RHA?”).

RHA is in charge with a great part concerning student housing on campus, so if anyone, they are the go-to organization when it comes to bringing forth this issue. Once the issue has been brought to the attention of Residential Hall Association, they would know where to go from there. Residential Hall Association is also in charge of selecting Community Assistants and Peer Mentors, which is extremely helpful, as they would be familiar with the duties of a CA and what can be done concerning college depression.
