“Whether it was working with families to come up with creative ways to help a student continue their education financially, working with students on improving academics so they can stay at W&J, or just being a friendly face behind the scenes making sure we had clean, 安全, 舒适的学习和生活场所, I learned that a small investment of respect and kindness to everyone has a return on investment that cannot be measured. My time as a student worker and the great people I worked for and with strongly influenced my leadership style,他说.
Amanda Cowen, assistant director of Residence Life at W&J, had two jobs as a student at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP). She was a tour guide for the IUP Office of 招生, and also was a Community Assistant for the Office of Residence Life.

“我有很多轶事, but one that sticks out in my mind was when I was pied in the face for a fundraiser. 我住在枫树街的套房里, so the students thought it would be funny to put maple syrup in our pies,”她说。. “Being that both of my jobs were in functional areas in higher education, they gave me great insight into what type of work I wanted to do. The family atmosphere that I had when I was a CA is what created my love of working with students…Having such a vast support system made me never fear to ask for help in college, and gave me a sense of purpose outside my academics.”
奥利维亚·豪厄尔，W&J的包容性校园参与协调员, had multiple campus jobs as student at James Madison University in Virginia. Howell was a Housing Coordinator in the 事件 and Conferencing office, where she helped handle logistics for summer conferences and camps on campus.
