Dining Services relies upon student help in the fast food shops, dining centers, catering, convenience stores, snack areas and offices. Job opportunities are very flexible and work locations are very convenient to classes and residence halls. Students may work two or three meals shifts a week and every other weekend, just weekends, days, or even just evenings. Most students choose to work from 12 to 20 hours per week...it's up to you!

Dining Services pays some of the highest student wages on campus! Wages range from $7.40 to $10. Many students earn higher wages through longevity increases or promotional opportunities. Positions available include food service workers, cashiers, supervisors, office managers, computer analysts, graphic artists and unit managers.

Begin working your freshman year!
According to Rick Kincaid, editor of Student Employment: Linking College and the Workplace, "The Freshman Year Experience," working does not typically interfere with academic responsibilities. In fact, working students demonstrate better time-management skills. It is also a great way to get involved in campus life and to meet interesting people.
