Work Study - Still Hiring!

Several departments are still hiring: 

Student Life is hiring! If you are interested in planning campus activities with the support of the Student Life department, this fast-paced position may be for you. We are seeking candidates who can handle things ranging from data entry to event organization and hosting. If you’ve seen a Squat Talk or flyer around campus and wondered, “Who makes these?” – it could be you! Our student workers are able to get some first-hand experience with a wide set of skills and work with staff to hone skills to prepare for work after college – or similar work-study positions at other colleges upon transfer. Please see Kris Kelley in Maine Hall 126 for more information.

Student Life and Johnston Gym are also seeking an individual to work with us on… Intramural sports! This work study position will be filled by a student who is responsible and interested in organizing intramural activities like basketball, soccer, and more! This person will work with the staff in charge of the Gym and Student Life to organize regularly scheduled activities for students to participate in. This work-study position will likely need to work in the evening, but we can discuss that for the right candidate. Please see Kris in Maine Hall 126 for more information.

Campus Safety is hiring student workers as well. You can contact the Director of Campus Safety, Jodie ([email protected]).
