I am an RA in the on campus dorms, and another RA came in to ask for help on an assignment. I was thrown off because I kept thinking about my relationship as a co-worker. I had known him personally for a year and had never had an interaction with him strictly as a student. He wanted to outline and draft for a paper that was coming up. We went over what he had already prepared, and then I tried to apply some theory. I focused on HOCs as we drew up plans for his paper. I made notes about what he said he wanted to talk about, and we examined those together to determine if he wanted to adjust anything. Everything went well, and he went on his way. However, he called me over the weekend and asked if I could go over it with him. I told him that we could in the Writing Center.
