On-campus jobs unaffected by cuts

Despite Dartmouth's budgetary concerns, the number of campus employment opportunities available for students has not decreased, according to College officials. "So far, there have been enough jobs for students who are looking," Todd Kilburn, manager of the student employment office, said in an interview with The Dartmouth. Kilburn said the College could turn to the community to help students find jobs if absolutely necessary. In some areas of the College, including Dartmouth Dining Services, the number of student employment opportunities have actually increased, Kilburn said. "The more students we can hire the better," DDS acting director David Newlove said, pointing to students' increased need for employment in the current economic climate. DDS student employees can continue to work beyond the requirements of their work-study obligations, Newlove said, which is not true in every College department. The main dining options on campus also have maintained the hours they had during Spring term, Newlove said.
