Re: Graduate Assistant Stipends



Based on my experience in general most Graduate Assistants work within the
History Department in some capacity or in the University Archives or Special
Collections.

        I'm curious about the stipends graduate assistants receive working
in archival repositories.  If you employ such students, are currently a GA
working in a repository, or recently worked as a GA, could you please share:

        The amount of your stipend,

        The number of hours worked,

        The duration of your assistantship,

        And note any other relevant information.

        For instance, here at the South Caroliniana Library, the typical
assistantship:

        pays $4,500 for 20 hours per week over a nine month school year, and
students receive a significant tuition reduction, increasing the value of
the assistantship markedly.

        Thanks for any information you can share.
