The salary level for an SC is $10.30 per hour.  Please remember that SCs are expected to work very specific hours (which include both summer and December Term hours).   Student Coordinators are only allowed to work and sub for SC hours.  Specific hours to be shared by the two SCs include:

Anyone wishing to apply for the SC position should email a letter of application to me that includes the number of terms you have worked, areas in which you have worked, and reasons you feel especially qualified for the position. 

Given the approaching deadline to apply for summer housing, the deadline for applying for this position is 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 2.  Interviews will be conducted shortly thereafter.  Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding these positions or the procedures for applying.
