Academic Success

Research shows that students tend to get better grades when they hold a part-time job. Working helps to improve time management and prioritization skills.

Hours & Scheduling

Many students work an average of seven to ten hours per week. Students are discouraged from working more than 20 hours per week. During orientation, students work with supervisors to determine a work schedule that works well with class schedules.

Safety

Jobs are available where students live--some even in their hall. When possible, our late night shifts are designed to end in teams. This facilitates groups leaving at the same time. Campus also offers a free service called Safe Walk to help students.
