Radio Station I'm the trafficing supervisor - that means I make sure all programs we get from other services are re- turned and that the programs we run are in good condition and that they I are there when they need to be run, states Kris Summerville, a stu- dent worker at the radio station. She feels that her work at the station is in a pretty relaxed environment with- out people hovering over her all the time. When we asked Kris, a senior English major, how her job is helping her, she replied, I think that any- time you have a job that has you meet deadlines it will help you later. You realize that other things people do depends on what you do and if you don't get it done then the whole thing gets messed up. The radio station, which is super- vised by Gary Chew, is challenging and gratifying work for Kris, but also hard at times. I have to meet a lot of deadlines. By the end of the day I have to be sure that everything that needs to be done is done. I have to budget my time. TOP- Anne-Marie Houser reads the morning news over the air at KSOZ.

His campus job consists of washing cars, servicing the cars and making repairs, and driving them. joe feels that his job is sometimes fun, but also sometimes hard. Like most of the guys at transpo he takes it to be fun. When Ioe was asked what he is learning at his job he replied, Oh, a lot. I didn't know anything about transports, now I can work on my own car and do minor repairs. I sprayed it with the help of another student. It cost me less than S100.
