GA
Application Deadline: 
Tuesday, May 4, 2021 - 8:45am

Lehigh University is recruiting candidates who are prepared to support, educate, and engage residential fraternity and sorority members within a student-centered learning environment. We seek graduate students committed to the Five Foundations for Student Success: Creative Curiosity, Identity Development, Collaborative Connections, Inclusive Leadership, and Professional Growth and Success. 

The Live-in Graduate Asssistant (GA) is assigned to assist the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Affairs (OFSA) in serving as a resource and paraprofessional mentor to the Lehigh University fraternity and sorority residential communities. The Live-in GA assists their respective chapter through formal and informal interactions with the chapter officers and individual members. 

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree.
  • Full time graduate student. Enrollment in a Lehigh University graduate or professional program preferred. Graduate or professional students enrolled at other local accredited higher education institutions will also be considered. 
  • Successfully pass a background check and Act 34 clearance. 
  • Documented authorization to work in the United States, as required by the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986. 
  • Availability to work outside traditional work hours to respond to student concerns and attend department trainings and meetings. 

With the current state of COVID-19, together with Dr. Hall and Housing Services, OFSA has made the difficult decision to postpone the Live-in GA program until Fall 2022. This decision has been made in light of Lehigh University considering all possible cost saving measures and given that all construction projects have ended on-campus for the time being. By postponing the program, we anticipate that we will start back up where we left off with recruitment and selection in early January 2022.
