Student Employment
Taylor Graduate Assistants (GAs) and Student Fellows are paraprofessionals who are responsible for creating and implementing Taylor programs and increasing campus and community awareness of Taylor.
Students must commit to working with Taylor for a full academic year.
Graduate Assistantships (open only to graduate students)
GAs work on a more independent basis with their supervisor.
The Changemaker Institute (CI) graduate assistant will work together with staff to develop, organize, promote, and execute Taylor’s social venture accelerator program. The GA will plan the institute (review previous year’s evaluation materials, revise curriculum, recruit participants and secure mentors and speakers) and then execute the program in the spring, which will include weekly meetings and Saturday sessions with accepted ventures. Applications open in February each spring.
