- Act and dress professionally. Ask your supervisor if you are unclear about the dress code required by the office.
- If you hold more than one job on campus, make sure your hours for both jobs don’t overlap. Student employees are expected to plan academic, personal, and work schedules that do not conflict.

- Always do your job to the best of your ability! If you have to resign from your position for any reason, please inform your supervisor at least one week in advance so that a replacement may be hired.
