Working students
budget time, money
By ALY COVELL
Gamecock Staff Writer
She sits quietly in her Gamecock jersey, blue jeans and blue bandana,
taking a short rest from a schedule she describes as "pressured."
Kate Hagman, who works in the Gamecock Snack Bar 15 to 20 hours a
week in addition to attending classes full-time, is one of more than 2,500
working students.
She said she thought she might be able to take 18 credit hours instead
of her current 15, but "I don't know if I'd be sane by the end of the
semester."
Joe Keegan, a security guard for Wade Hampton dorm, said his 16
hour-a-week job does not pay enough and he needs to work to pay for
school expenses.
SUSAN JAMESON, a full-time student who works 10 to 15 hours a
week as an usher at the Russell House Theatre needs to pay for "food,
books and other necessary living expenses."
Another working student said his job at the records department does
not pay sufficiently because the salary is below minimum wage, but the
job does offer experience that he said he thought would be helpful for his
career goals. The job "has given me good experience working in an
office" with people in different situations, he said. Other off-campus
jobs which might be helpful to his major would be too time-consuming,
he said.
A student who works at the state house said she thought her job offers
her "good experience because I like politics. It's like an internship to
me." She said 15 hours was a "good amount" to take while working.
"You have to learn how to budget your time" and get your priorities
straight, she said.
