Knox College On Campus Student Employment

About Knox College On Campus Student Employment

About half of the students at Knox work on campus during the academic year. They work in almost every department and office of the College, including the academic departments, laboratories, administrative offices, libraries, dining services, custodial services, and the mailroom. A student with specialized skills or training may find a job that uses that skill, for example, as a lifeguard in the pool, as a writer or photographer in the communications office, or as a bike mechanic in the campus bike shop.

Student employment is a great way to gain hands-on, real life experience while also getting to know the college, meet staff and faculty, and help fellow students. These opportunities can help students gain and build upon relevant and transferable skills, develop time-management strategies, improve their ability to work in a team and build basic professional readiness, while also providing financial assistance.
