Do you love spreading joy around campus? We are looking for someone to design this year’s Winter Carnival button/sticker art. The art will have to be completed ASAP. The chosen artist will win a WOC t-shirt or gift card (and of course, the glory of having designed the Winter Carnival button) as the prize! If you are at all interested, email [log in to unmask], ASAP for more details! We’d love to see your art :) Work as a camp counselor this summer in beautiful Maine! Friends Camp, a small overnight Quaker summer camp in South China, Maine, is currently hiring for this summer! The camp is directed by a Williams alum, Anna Hopkins Buller and has had a wonderful handful of Williams staff members over the years, including Joanie Cha ,WOC board member.. A summer spent as a camp counselor leads to better life and work experience than almost any internship. They pay $315/ week for first-year staff, plus travel stipends for those who need it and additional pay for lifeguards.
