Best part of your job:
The privilege of meeting our visiting families and helping to make their time on campus an enjoyable and memorable experience!

Tips for college success:

Why you decided to work at the Thomas?
I was currently enrolled as a student at Thomas College when I discovered the opening in Admissions. I had firsthand experience as to the helpfulness, kindness, and hospitality shown to incoming students. I knew I would love to be a part of that!

Where you're most likely to be found hanging out on campus?
Dining Center! The food is DELICIOUS!

If you were stranded on a deserted island, what three items would you bring?
A flare gun and two flares so I could fire a distress signal and get OFF that island!
