I've heard other stories about Resident Life forbidding RAs from going through recruitment and I've always wondered if they can actually do that. In theory, aren't RAs picked based on their maturity and such--basically, why would it matter if you're going through Recruitment so long as your work as an RA isn't suffering?
Sorry, I'm having a hard time expressing myself here. That Res Life could do this always seemed ridiculous to me.
PS, great story! hurry back & update!
