Yes, we have a budgeted amount specifically for student assistants who staff
the Help Desk as well as another amount budgeted for the student assistants
who staff the public computing labs.

Subject: Budget for student employment?
Hey all :-)
For those universities that rely heavily on students for staffing in lab
support and help desk areas, are you provided in your budget a specific
amount to be used for budgeted student employment?
For instance, we're allocated a certain amount of total work study funds,
but not much at all in budget funds for when the student's work study funds
run out. Considering most work study awards for students are only $2000 per
year, at the $9.00 per hour they get paid and working an average of 12-14
hours per week, this money runs out extremely fast and due to the amount of
training typically involved to be able to do their jobs successfully,
letting them go once their award runs out is not a feasible option nor do we
often have the incoming applications to replace them if it was.
Just curious how other IT departments handle this/structure their staff
around it or if it's even an issue.
Thanks!
