What’s the most “they didn’t cover this in grad school” thing you’ve dealt with at work this year?

Honestly this feels like the only accurate thing in my job description

Sometimes Student Affairs is eating chicken tenders behind the DJ booth at a paint party, and sometimes Student Affairs is sprinting into a ResHall to evacuate it because a car is on fire 10 feet away. Sometimes you're lucky and those happen on the same day 😌 Student Affairs Problems
