Commuter Assistant Staff

What's a CA?

That's Commuter Assistant and you may want to be one. Students are being hired by the Office of Commuter Affairs to work with new commuter students during the Fall 2017 semester. This program offers you the opportunity to help other students while gaining valuable work experience. The Commuter Assistant Program is a support network of upperclassmen students who serve as advisors and provide resources for new commuters. CA's plan activities, provide information, supply encouragement and more... for a group of new students who are in the same academic program. CA's receive an amount equal to a one semester parking permit.
