We start off the New Year with a conversation with another SWACUHO Past President, Tanya Massey from Oklahoma State University. Tanya spent a number of years focusing on the human resources component of campus housing, so we dive into importance and nuance of recruitment and training staff. We then explore the value of developing small skills with long term career impact before jumping into association involvement. In that part of the conversation, Tanya discusses the challenges with balancing volunteerism, professional responsibilities, and personal/family lives. We of course end with some fun stories demonstrating the importance of “making work fun”. Throughout all the discussion items, Tanya reiterates the value of having a professional family.
