If students keep their
priorities straight, a part
time job during college
need not adversely affect
their grades, UNL's admis
sions and advising director
said. But freshmen may
have a difficult time bal
ancing a Job and school.
Al Papik said a part
time job can even have a
positive effect on a dis
ciplined student. Prob
lems exist only when work
becomes a higher priority
than school, he said.
Then the student is
more apt to miss a class
than miss work," Papik
said.
Another disadvantage
is that a job leaves stu
dents with less time for
campus and extraxnirricuhr
activities, Papik said.
However, the advant
ages are many, he said.
These include money, ex
perience, discipline and
an increased apprecia
tion of school.
The university takes no
official stand on the wis
dom of students of stu
dents holding jobs, Papik
said. But, he said, he
thinks freshmen should
not work, especially dur
ing their first semester at
the university.
Jobs make the transi
tion from high school to
college more difficult, he
said. If they need to work,
freshmen should take
fewer credit hours of
classes or work fewer
hours, Papik said.
According to UNL re
search", 62 percent of the
freshmen enrolled for the
1983-84 academic v year
planned to work while in
college. The study also
showed that 27 percent
didn't plan to work their
first year and 4 percent
did not respond to the
questionnaire,
Of the students who
planned to work, 26 per
cent plan ned to work one
to 10 hours per week.
Thirty-five percent plan
ned to work 11 to 20
hours per week and 8
percent planned to work
more than 20 hours per
week.
Although it seems most
students work to earn
money, Papik said, many
working students' parents
will pay the extra ex
pense if students choose
not to work. Many stu
dents work simply to be
independent, he said.
"I admire that as long
as it doesn't interfere
with their, education,"
Papik said.
Doug Severs, assistant
director of student employ
ment, said the work-study
program is one way for
students to earn money
to help finance their col
lege education. The uni
versity and the federal
government sponsor the
work-study program, he
said.
Work-studyjobs are al
located according to a
student's financial need,
Severs said. UNL offers
work-study both during
the summer and the aca
demic year. About 450
students use the pro
gram during the summer
and about 1,000 use It
the rest of the academic
year, he said.
Pay ranges from $3.35
per hour to $5 per hour,
depending on the job,
Severs said. Students
work in university depart
ments and offices.
Papik said that besides
the work-study program,
the university has a"mini
employment agency," run
by the scholarships the
office offers city and state
wide Jobs.
Peggy West, student
employment coordinator
of the Job Location and
Development Program,
said the number of Jobs
needed by such a large
student population cant
all be filled on campus.
Because of thi3, her office
places students In part
time Job3 of campus.
Employers give permis
sion for a job notice to be
placed on the Job Board
when a spot Li open, West
said. The board hang3 on
the west wail of the Ad
ministration Building.
"We don't have to go
too far to find them (em
ployers)," she said. "They
find us."
The Job Location and
Development Program
placed more than 800
students in the 1082-83
academic year, West said.
