Great Experience - Love the School
Head Women's Basketball Coach (Former Employee) – Salisbury, NC – July 18, 2018
When I took the Head Women's Basketball position at Catawba, the program had just entered the NAIA South Atlantic Conference as a competing member from club status in previous years. So basically, we built the program from scratch with 1 scholarship the first year to 6 my final year. We built a championship team in 1993 - NAIA District 26 Champions! I had support from the administration, which made my compensation negligible.
The hardest part of this job was leaving for Western Carolina, a Division I school competing in the Southern Conference. At Catawba, we had built a foundation that would last - subsequent coaches were able to have winning seasons and win championships.
Sometimes the grass isn't greener on the other side!

Library Assistant (Former Employee) – Salisbury, NC – July 18, 2018
Typically set two to three hours of work each day based on my schedule, allowed time off for school events, low stress with long periods of front desk work, once asked to order inventory for a new section of the library with a $5,000 budget I adhered to, hardest part of the job was often shelving books in tough sections but all problems with this were quickly handled.
Pros
Set my own hours, could eat at the desk, easy work for a student to handle
Cons
No breaks, sometimes asked to perform new duties with no warning
fun workplace

The flexibility of a work study student is as wide as one can imagine-- although many challenges may arise, the enjoyable part is how positive the environment is & how much management can work with you.

Slow periods during the summer break

Being a part of the Catawba family is a special thing. There is high demand for a high quality work, establishing relationships, and a need for time management. Working for Catawba has a been a positive experience for me, especially because I was able to work with students on a regular basis, build strong connections with local businesses and organizations within the community, and to help invest into the future of our world. I would absolutely recommend working at Catawba College, mainly because of the culture and family that you quickly become a part of.

IF you enjoy working with extraordinary students and have a love for travel and planning events then this is the place for you.

It was a good experience.

Loved students and atmosphere of Catawba
Adjunct Professor (Current Employee) – Salisbury, NC – November 15, 2015
Catawba College is not a place where you have to worry about micromanaging. You will get your classes and have the freedom to teach without constant oversight and harping from deans and VP's. Would love to be full-time but those jobs are few and far between for obvious reasons. Thankful for the class I do have!
