One board lists available on-campus jobs while the other lists available off-campus jobs. These boards are updated daily. PATRICK ODEN photo ALPHA is an opportunity for anyone to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-thrcatcning setting over ten (10) thought provoking weekly sessions with an optional weekend or day retreat. It is non-denominational. Everyone is welcome to the Bible based ALPHA course and people attend for a wide variety of reasons. Some want to investigate whether God exists and if there is any point to life; others are concerned about what happens after death. Still others may want to understand the basics of the Christian faith. People come from many backgrounds, holding many different \icw points - but all come with the same objective: to establish whether Jesus Christ has any real relevance for their lives. USU offers job service to students Anyone interested in finding out more about the Christian faith is welcome. Learning and laughter are both essential elements to this course. Students now allowed to work more hours ByBRITTNYGOODSELL JONES assistant features editor Students needing to work more than 20 hours a week at their on-campus jobs can now rest assured they won't get into trouble. Paula Miller, human resource specialist, said the old rule, which only allowed a maximum of 20 working hours per week for students, has been somewhat dropped. "They've kind of let go of that," Miller said. "We do post the jobs that are 20 hours a week or less, but if a student gets a job (on campus) and works more than 20 hours a week, we don't really monitor that anymore." The new rule is just one advantage, Miller said, of working on campus. Another advantage is a flexible schedule thatcan fit between classes. Miller, who works at the Student Employment Office, also said working on campus is convenient because there is no need to leave campus. "The pay is also slowly getting better," Miller said with a laugh. USU's Student Employment Center staff members are there to help speed up the process of finding, applying and getting jobs for students and nonstudents. Ryan Bohm, senior in international business, said there are two ways to apply for on-campus jobs. The first way to apply is to go online to the student employment Web site at http://www.usu. edu/studemp/. The second way to apply is to directly go to the Student Employment Office and begin in person. A job board is located outside the Student Employment Office and is updated each day by 8 a.m. The job board also shows off-campus jobs available as well as some temporary jobs, summer jobs, work-study jobs and part-time only jobs. Bohm, who works in the USU Student Employment Office, said students can apply for only two jobs per day. The first step in applying for a job is to locate the oncampus job board outside Student Employment Office Pasta and pie- eating a meal together gives opportunity for people to get to know each other. or online at its Web site. Students must then find the job number located on the job description. The second step is to take the job number to the office tofillout any necessary paperwork or fill out any paperwork online. If applying in person, the Student Employment Office will then print the student a referral that will give information on how to apply for the particular job. If applying online, students need to hit the Print Job Referral button located on the Job Details page to print their referral. The final step is to contact the department about its referral and bring the referral and a personal resume to the interview. Bohm said students can apply for jobs "whichever way is easier for them" and that the application process goes quickly as long as instructions are followed. The Student Employment Office is located in Room 106 in the Taggart Student Center, and the staff can be reached at 797-0184. -britg@cc.usu.edu Helping one another in small groups with a chance to discuss issues raised in talks.

Who Said Going- Back to School Isn't Fun? THE FACTORY PIZZERIA OUTSTANDING CRUST ICE COLD TAP BEER WASHINGTON - Forty years ago, Robert Gifford, a senior at the University of California at Davis, spent a few weeks banging on dorm doors and asking occupants whether they were studying. Gifford didn't want to party; he just wanted to see whether the students were working at their desks or on their beds. Then he wanted to compare the grade-point averages of the erect to the supine.
