George

Article by: Landon Willey, M&M TIPster

George Ling was born in 1988 in Miami Beach, Florida. He now works as a Residential Counselor at the Duke TIP summer program at UGA in Athens, Georgia. As Residential Counselor, George has been assigned a group of TIPsters, or teenagers attending TIP, to take watch over. He is responsible for this group's safe journey from Myers hall to the Bolton Dining Facility every evening for dinner. He is also required to host evening activities nearly every night, unless something came up to prevent him from hosting an event, of course. George has hosted a myriad of events, such as ninja-killer. In evening activity, George receives a group of TIPsters, whom he instructs to participate in whatever this event entails.
George’s RC group are the fourth year male TIPsters. As can be expected over the course of three weeks, much camaraderie has been formed between the group and George. When asked what he thought of his RC group, George replied “They are awesome”. Through hanging out around the fourth year guys, one can easily see the love they feel for George. They constantly badger him in admittedly creative ways, but always in a joking manner. No doubt, whenever this RC group has its nightly meetings, it must be a sight to see.
