On Campus Student Employment
Working on campus offers students a variety of benefits. You can earn money, gain skills, explore your interests and augment your academic program while demonstrating your abilities and work ethic without leaving campus. Additionally, you will work under supervisors who support student academic success. You will learn time management techniques enabling you to better balance your course work with your job.
Student positions are typically available in the: Library, Robertson/Hamilton Center(across from Tatsuda's), Learning Center (Math and English Tutors) and Student Services Office. We also occasionally need student aides to assist in the Science, Math, and Business departments.
