This just in from 2013 COMHE alumna, Jessica Tartanian...

 I am doing a program evaluation "study" this fall and am looking for 4 grad students to do some data collection and entry on a paper student pre/post survey. The folks we hire might have future opportunities to do the data collection and entry on the post survey at the end of the school year as well. I am thinking that I will also hire one of these folks to help me with data entry and analysis of our parent survey while I am out of maternity leave too.  Would you mind circulating this job posting around, or sending any of your favorites my way? I would be much obliged!  If you have someone that is in need of a field work position for this fall or spring and wants to do some data entry/ cleaning/ analysis, I could use someone for that too.
