Readers are paid $11.25 per hour and the number of hours is based on the number of students enrolled on the 10th day of the quarter (usually a minimum of 60 students). Readers are paid for their services in a lump sum on December 10, 2008.

To apply, email a paragraph to the instructor that describes your qualifications to be a reader for the class for which you are applying. The application deadline for Autumn 2008 is Friday, October 10th. Note that international students on a J-1 or F-1 visa are not eligible to work more than 20 hours per week. This means that students who are already employed as Academic Student Employees (research assistants, teaching assistants, or staff assistants), cannot be hired as readers.
Applicants will be notified of hiring decisions by October 21.
