Job description

We value our students!

Writing Mentors are crucial to the services provided by the Chatham University OAAR Writing Center. Writing mentors work individually with students who need help with written assignments for any subject. They also work with a caseload of students enrolled in COR145 - a 1-credit writing course designed to strengthen the writing skills of undergraduates new to Chatham.

The position is on-campus but there are options to work virtually at times, depending on need. This is a position for the 26-27 academic year. All current student employees should notify their other manager(s) if you work multiple jobs on campus at the same time. Additionally, students may not work more than 20 hours per week (combined between all campus jobs) during the academic year. Students may not exceed 980 work hours per calendar year. Student jobs do not automatically roll over to the next academic year or summer.
