National Student Employment Week

WHAT IS NATIONAL STUDENT EMPLOYMENT WEEK?

The National Student Employment Association has declared that the second full week in April every year be set aside to recognize the value of student employees and student employment professionals.

Student employees are the lifeblood of Bowling Green State University. They are integral to nearly every facet of University operations throughout a student’s career at BGSU, from a student’s first recruiting interaction, through graduation and successful advancement into the community as a BGSU alum. Their hard work is seen everywhere across campus, from the maintenance and cleanliness of the grounds and buildings, to all functions of the Student Recreation Center and the Learning Commons, to every aspect of Residence Life and Dining. They outnumber faculty and permanent staff by a wide margin, and are responsible for many of the day-to-day tasks involved in the vast majority of BGSU departments.

With this in mind, we invite you to help us celebrate the wonderful efforts and accomplishments of our student employees during this year’s National Student Employment Week, held April 14-18, 2025.
