STUDENT EMPLOYEES
Student assistants are employed in various departments of the
University and are assigned to specific supervisors. As University employees,
student assistants are expected to give punctual, efficient, and cooperative
performance on the job.
Student employees and their supervisors should be aware of
the following regulations:
-
Students must work during their assigned hours and may
not change those hours at their convenience.
-
Students must not use the University telephone system
for personal calls.
-
Students should not be assigned to give tests or to
grade major tests and examinations. Qualified student assistants may, with the
approval of the department chairperson, check objective daily tests and other
similar work, marking the incorrect items, but the score or grade on each
paper should be entered only by the instructor.
-
Students are expected to exercise discretion in carrying
out their responsibilities and not to discuss the business of their assigned
areas with others outside the department.
-
Students may not bring children to their work
assignments nor socialize with friends during assigned work hours.
-
Student employees are expected to dress appropriately in
accordance with the dress standards established in the departments in which
they work. Generally, shorts are not considered appropriate dress, and shoes
are required.
-
Time cards for student employees must be kept accurately
by the supervisor, signed by the student and the supervisor, and submitted on
schedule.
WORK-STUDY STUDENTS
Most student employees are hired under the College Work-Study
Program, which is one form of financial assistance from federal funds.
Work-Study students are selected after being interviewed by the department
chairperson or department head. The student and the supervisor together develop
a work schedule for the student that is satisfactory to both. Supervisors are
expected to explain the job requirements and to provide training, counseling,
and supervision for the students. A supervisor may dismiss a Work-Study student
from the department if the student’s performance is not satisfactory, but only
the Director of Financial Aid can terminate a student from the Work-Study
Program. Any dismissal must be reported to the Director of Financial Aid in
writing. (Additional information may be found in the "College Work-Study
Manual," copies of which are in department and administrative department
offices.)
