520 |a This program was devised in an attempt to train more effective resident advisors for the 1972-73 school year at a dormitory at California State University. The special characteristics of the dormitory--racially mixed and discordant--seemed to indicate a need for a special kind of resident advisor training program, one that attempted to better acquaint resident advisors with their own feelings and those of other resident advisors and the incoming students. It sought to unite the resident advisors into a single group, working together and setting the mood for the entire dormitory. Virtually all schools have such training programs, although not much literature has been published on the topic, nor has much research been done in the area. It was felt that the most effective program would, like most others, feature an inservice week on campus including a three-day retreat, and use of a handbook, reading list, self-evaluation forms, and weekly meetings. Unlike other programs, the inservice week at CSU included extensive sessions in sensitivity training. It was anticipated that the inservice portion of the program and the required readings would assist students as well as advise in coping with aspects of racial prejudice. (Author)
