Resident Computer Coordinators
House staff members (along with RAs, Head AAs, TAs etc.) who manage
computer clusters, provide computer-based education, consult with
residents on any and all computer related problems. RCCs also
teach the CS1c "Introduction to Micro Computing" course in each house.
RCCs have become the primary campus consulting resource for Stanford's
housed undergraduates. Our reliance on these expert students is the key
to the efficiency and effectiveness of the program. A listing of the current
Stanford Resident Computer Coordinators (RCC's) is given in the
RCC Directory.
There is also a detailed job description.
RCC compensation and perks
- $630 per quarter plus $150 for those who support in-room connections.
- Exemption from housing draw plus room priority
- Leadership and responsibility
- Valuable industry contact.
