Celebrate National Student Employment Week

April 13–17 is National Student Employment Week! Student employees perform invaluable services to the campus community.

Supervisors, would you like to recognize your student employees? Here are a few low- to no-cost ideas:

  • Bring in treats for your student workers or put together a goodie bag
  • Write a hand-written note expressing your appreciation
  • Help students with their career preparation – offer to review their resume or write a letter of recommendation
  • Decorate office doors, desks, or bulletin boards with signs expressing your appreciation
  • Highlight students on your social media pages, or submit a student/group spotlight to Career Services to be highlighted on Instagram – just send a photo and quote to Amanda Martin, amanda.martin@drake.edu

We are also thankful to the many on-campus supervisors who support the development of Drake students every day!
