Class Assistantships

Opportunities to work as class assistants and freshman seminar leaders are also available to selected students. Class assistants provide support to teaching faculty in large classes; their duties vary in accordance with the needs of the professor to whom they are assigned. They are selected on a combination of seniority, academic performance, and future potential.

First-year Seminar Leaders

History graduate students are also employed as first-year seminar leaders by the University Core Curriculum Program. In this role, they are assigned one or two sections of first-year seminar, each of which are linked to large lecture courses (many are in history) in "triads" or "tetrads." First-year seminar leaders help students with the work of the large lectures and with other issues related to the first-year experience and transition to college. They also assist in grading duties for the large classes. Training for first-year seminar leaders is required. The graduate student should plan to begin training in the second summer session prior to the Fall of employment. For more information on this program, please contact Core Curriculum office (825-2150) or see the Core Curriculum Brochure.
