C&M students can become:
* C&M campus class assistants who help the instructor teach and grade.
* NetMath internet distance education mentors who are class assistants but do their work remotely via the internet rather than in the campus labs.
Hiring is based on performance in previous C&M courses and ability to deal with students. The advantages you get:
* You get paid for what you do.
* Through fielding student questions and/or grading you learn the material really well.
* The personal skills needed for these jobs are valued in the business world. Showing these jobs on your resume gives you an advantage in the job market.
I thought I would never be able to do math at UIUC until I found out about these programs.
Techs support both the lab machines and the software used in this program.
