End of Term Matters

The end of the term is rapidly approaching!  Please complete the following instructions as we prepare schedules for Finals Week and Winter Term.

1.      FINALS WEEK - All students are expected to work their regular work schedule through Saturday, November 17^th.  A finals week schedule is being prepared for Sunday, November 18^th through Wednesday, November 21^st.  All student assistants are required to sign up to work a minimum of four hours during finals week.  Please see Heidi by 5:00 on THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8^th to sign up for your hours.  The finals week schedules are on the end of Heidi's desk by her Ghost Mr. Potato Head.

2.      WINTER TERM SCHEDULES - All student assistants who plan to work Winter Term will be assigned a work schedule before they leave for D-Term.  (If for any reason you don’t plan to work next term, please let Heidi know right away!!)   The appropriate form on the blank schedules page in the departmental schedules section on the student assistant website should be completed to indicate when you will be available to work during Winter Term.  Please complete the form carefully and thoughtfully!  Also, remember that any form that does not leave enough hours for us to work with when assigning schedules will be returned for revision.  All forms should be given to Heidi by 5:00 on THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8^th.

If you have any questions about this process, please do not hesitate to contact Heidi or me.

Information services desk

Hello,

Please remember that the information services desk is your first priority and should never be left empty.  The student assistants should be the most aware of being present at the desk. 

Please do not just leave if no one has shown up at the end of your shift.  If, by chance, the person who comes after you has not shown up for their shift, please let myself or the person sitting on the staff side know the situation.  PLEASE DO NOT JUST LEAVE!

Thanks!
Heidi
