About the Department

Berea College requires all students to work 10- 15 hours per week in approved jobs on campus and in the community while carrying a full academic course load. Can this strengthen your character and give you a sense of direction?

The overwhelming response from students and alumni is an enthusiastic "YES!" The work experience, they note, "teaches you how to work", "provides practical experience" and "genuine job perspective."

"The Labor Program was one of the most important parts of my education at Berea."

—Abby Cameron, class of '97

"The Labor Program is a wonderful leveler. Everyone works, no excuses."

—Eric Hardin, class of '96
