On-campus job opportunities available to students

August 27, 2024 by Makayla Clayton

Students have the opportunity to pursue on-campus jobs that allow them to experience the environment and benefits that off-campus jobs may not offer.

Jenaveve Anderson, junior child and family services major from El Paso, is the student team lead for Wildcat Central and said she loves her job and being able to help students and parents is her favorite part. 

“I think it’s really special to be able to be helpful, to be a light when somebody comes into the office,” Anderson said.

Shonetta Black, junior criminal justice major from Odessa, also works in Wildcat Central and said she would recommend the job to anyone who thinks they could handle both the workload and classes.

“I like it because it’s a good environment, we’re a chill, good working team, and it puts money in my pockets,” Black said.

Benefits of jobs at ACU include flexible scheduling, opportunities to build connections with staff and peers and resume-building.

Applications and more information, such as hours, location and requirements, can be found in the on-campus job opportunities section on acu.edu.
