At Wellesley College we are making decisions about job descriptions and the 
salary calculations for the students who will serve as computer consultants
in our residential areas for the next academic year.  I have a few 
questions:

1.  What is the mission as you see it for these consultants....are they
devoted to making sure students are connected or do you also see them as a 
part of the initiative for educating and tutoring students in computer 
applications, etc.?

2.  How do you calculate compensation?  Is it a fixed amount per week or do 
you have them log the time in any way based on their actual time spent? 

3.  How much training do you provide for these consultants at the beginning 
of the year?  How does their training differ from consultants in the public 
clusters?

Any information on the above questions would be very helpful in preparing 
for the fall.

Thanks,
