Yes, I was kicked out for inappropriately manipulating fire in the dorm. However, it's well-known that residents continue to break rules which have the potential for much more dire consequences (e.g. possessing and firing b.b. guns in the dorms, excessively drinking in the dorms), and that resident advisors (most commonly, the residents' own RA) turn a blind eye to these infractions. What really chaps my ass, though, is a series of events that happened today. The premise: I have a meal contract with University Dining, a separate entity from Student Housing. Today dinner was a special barbeque, held outside of the ["Tercero Residence Halls" Tercero] and ["Segundo Residence Halls" Segundo] dorms. I, wanting to enjoy this special meal with my friends from the dormitory, chose to eat at the Tercero event, which was held on ["Leach Hall" Leach Beach]. While eating, my friends noticed an area RA mugging my old roommate (who also got kicked out) and me, and later conversing with one of the adult, full-time Student Housing staff members. After we had disposed of our garbage, the adult Coordinator approached my roommate and me, pulled us aside, and questioned us as to what we were doing in the area, saying, 'I just wanted to make sure you weren't doing anything that would land you in trouble' and other such nonsense. This person was in possession of the mental processes necessary to deduce that we were within our rights to be in the area, given that dinner was being held there tonight. However, I am left brooding over the following qualms:<br> + <br> + * Why didn't the RA who originally noticed us, not confront us directly over the matter?<br> + * Moreover, even taking into account that current RA training methods may be inadequate, is it that difficult for an RA to realize that it is physically impossible for a student to not be in a dormitory area, when a meal from University Dining is to be served there?<br> + <br> + Based on my overall experience with Student Housing, it does not seem unreasonable to me, to doubt the organization's competency in consistently training staff that are able at their job of advising residents.
