Work Program

Student Leadership

Each of the work departments has a student manager and there are two student general managers. This group is referred to collectively as the Work Committee, which is responsible for the overall administration of the work program, including: setting and implementing policies, labor allocations and work discipline campus wide.

The department managers hire assistant managers and crew heads in varying numbers depending upon the size and functions of the various departments. The “management teams” help the manager with hiring, training, scheduling, evaluating and general supervision of the student workers within their respective work departments.

Students have the opportunity to enhance their chosen major through the academic study of work and leadership in combination with “hands-on” experience by applying for admission into the Leadership Program. Successful completion of the program results in a Certificate of Leadership awarded with your diploma.
