Awesome University! Loved working there and San Marcos is a beautiful town

My work for Front Porch Literary Journal was very beneficial, I believe, to my overall editing experience. I learned how to gauge poetry for publication and to determine what a journal would be looking for at any given time. I only regret that I didn't work for Front Porch for more than one semester for credit.

I have worked here since I was a Freshman. I have been able to work and keep up with school while employed by Texas State.

I have only been at TX State since Aug 2011, however, I enjoy working a top-notch faculty and student body that is energized and interested in the course topic. Great benefits and facility.

If you enjoy working in an academic setting in a small community, Texas State University is the best.

A typical day at work would be to start every morning counting and balancing deposits left over night from over 5 different recreation departments and then administrative duties which ranged from balancing all the departments monthly accounts, which sometimes included more than one. Other duties would include balancing the department heads credt card – more... statements as well as filing.

I learned a great deal from working here and using SAP was one of them as well as balance, entering, creating accounts under Quickbooks.

The hardest part of my job was my last days there because I grew to love my co-workers and position but knew at the same time that I had reached my goal with them and needed to move on. – less

The Management Team that I worked directly with and was a part of was more like a family in many ways, yet do not misunderstand: The entire Management Team acted in a very professional manner, – more... got the job done, and was extremely pro-active in Customer Service and commitment to the customer. Again, I worked with a great many fellow colleagues from entry level on up through the hierarchy who pleasant to work with, willing to teach what they knew, etc.

The most enjoyable part of the job were the people, the learning experience and the variety. – less

It was a great experience being a research assistant. I learned a lot about the process of getting an article ready for publication. My professor/manager gave me valuable feedback and took my suggestions as if I was an equal. I felt like I was a valued member of a great team, and I became very interested in the subject matter.

This experience has given – more... me the motivation to do additional research projects both professionally and as a I continue my education. – less

Just a good place to work. They do mix business and personal too much though.
