them to print out documents and making them wait will not reflect well
on you. It is also essential to familiarize yourself with the operations of

The shredder can be found in the workroom and it is the only large one
found in our department, so it is important to always be emptying it
out. There is a red light that will appear when it is full, but be sure to
7
keep track of it. When it is time to take a full bag out, take it down the
hall where two blue large recycling bins will be found for you to throw
into them. The bags can be found in our workroom to replace the
bag(s) taken out to recycling.
Recycling bins in our offices are located in both the work room and the
main office. Be sure to always take out both recycling bins when they are
full or at the end of the day. Empty out both recycling bins and then take
them down the hall to shredder bins.
The offices have two smaller trash cans; one in the main office and one
located in the work room. Be sure to take the trash out to the bins
located outside the offices in the atrium or outside the sliding doors of
the building. It is best to complete this task at the end of the day. The
bags are located on the shelf beside the desk. Be sure to always take
out the old bag and put in a new one after the trash has been taken
out.
They are numerous amounts of bulletin boards that can be found in our
department. There are some in the hallway, as well as one in the work
room. Be sure to check for outdated material and throw-away. Also, be
alert for new material coming in order to post the most updated news
for the faculty. Pins and staples can be found in the workroom. It is best
to keep bulletin boards looking nice and neat in order to showcase a
proper display.
There is a student worker folder (that it is found right beside the desk
that) will always have tasks, projects, and instructions for you to work
on. Depending on the number of student workers per semester, work
load may vary. It is common to find names of students on their
individual projects in order to know what is designated for you to work
on. Again, if there are ever questions dont hesitate to ask for help. If
there comes a time that the folder does not have some work for you to
do go over steps 1-5 of this list. Also, ask if there is any help you can
give to your boss and co-workers.
Running Errands
Running errands will take up at least half of your time at work. There are
several buildings where you will have to run errands. Be sure to familiarize
yourself with the campus. If need be for longer distances there are bus
shuttles that can take you to the other side of campus. There is a website
that can assist you in order to track buses and to see their individual stops
and routes:

Below is a map of the campus to help guide you on your first couple of days
at work:

Most documents for deliveries will put into campus mail envelopes (picture
below). These can be found in a large white box in the work room.

These are to be written with the name of the person who it is designated to
as well as the building and office number of where it is supposed to go. Your
boss will let you know who and where it is to be delivered.
Also, note that depending on the importance of a delivery the envelopes may
be put into the campus mail basket in the mail room. Your boss will also let
you know this information.
These campus mail envelopes can be reused for other errands and
deliveries. If your boss does want a new one she will let you know. In order to
10
reuse the envelope, cross out the previous destination information and write
in the new details.
Bulletin Boards
The bulletin boards on display can be found upon entering the
interdisciplinary offices. There are several boards that the student workers
are in charge of doing with the direction of some of your superiors. The
American studies, Women and Genders studies, Masters in Liberal Arts, and
two student clubs affiliated with the minors Gen-X and Triota are all
boards we are in charge of putting up and decorating. These boards are
11
renewed every fall and spring and generally decorated once per year.
Remember that this work will be seen by everyone so be sure to produce the
best bulletin boards that you would like to see because they will certainly
reflect on you.
All the supplies for the bulletin boards can found in the work room within a
big white box found on the top shelf of the workroom (see above image for
reference). There will be borders, construction paper, and some background
paper. There will also be sticky vinyl letters found inside that are used for
titles on the boards that are put on construction paper. A paper cutter is
available for you to use in order to cut out more precise content.
Computer Use
Like in any office there are computers that are always used especially in a
school setting. It is essential for you to know how to work around the basics
of a computer. Also knowing how to operate Microsoft office Word, Excel,
Publisher, etc. is part of a student workers daily
job. There will be several small tasks done on these applications, as well as
bigger projects assigned to different student workers. These tasks will range
anywhere from lists, schedules, spreadsheets, course descriptions, etc. Your
boss will inform you about any individual projects or they can be found in the
student worker folder.
Final Words
There are numerous people that are willing to help you. As you start to work
you will slowly find ways to help others as well. Remember that everyone has
12
the same goal in the end and that is to create a functional program for both
the faculty and students.
