\ ATTENTION UPPERCLASS STUDENTS T The College is pleased to announce the continuation of the Mercyhurst Student Assistantship Program designed to aid Mercyhurst upperclassmen in meeting the increasing costs of education. Each Student Assistant will carry with it a reduction of tuition costs in return for a specified number of work hours. These positions will not replace the college Work Study Program but are intended primaril/ to require a higher degree of job performance and work hours while also bringing about higher remuneration. None of these positions willresult in cash transactions. Students who perform the assigned duties in a satisfac- tory manner will receive instead a reduction in their tuition charges The guidelines which will govern the operation of the program include the following:

1 Only students who will be upperclassmen in 1983-84 are eligible. 4 • I. 2. All students chosen for the positions first serve a probationary period before becoming eligible for the tuition reduction. u * fJ • t. STATE ST. 3. Tuition reduction will not be granted until the term following the start of employment. Tuition urns reduction for positions which run all year will be pro-rated for the Winter and Spring term. 4.
