Opportunities to work in Admissions include campus tours, events, office work, and tele counseling. Miscellaneous tasks may be assigned as position evolves.

Position Expectations:
Remember that regardless of when you are wearing your blue shirt or not, you are representing Eastern Oregon University and the Ambassador Program. If you are unable to attend any of the listed mandatory dates, notify the advisor prior to the date. Any member who accumulates two or more unexcused absences and/or tardies will face disciplinary actions, which could result in forfeiting one’s position on the team.

If you sign up for an event, you are responsible for attending that function or getting a replacement if you are unable to attend. You must contact the advisor 48 hours prior to the event to let us know you have found a replacement and/or if you are unable to find a replacement, otherwise it will be considered an absence. If your replacement does not attend the function, you are both held responsible. Remember it doesn’t just reflect poorly on you, but hurts the entire team and university.

Punctuality is essential. 5-10 minutes before any meeting or event is scheduled to begin is on time. This will allow you to receive any instructions or materials.

Privacy does not exist in the world of social media. Think twice before posting comments/photos and refrain from posting directly about the university and/or program. Consider what could happen if your post alienates or offends others.

Be professional and polite at all university events.

Refrain from wearing EOU gear, and especially Ambassador gear, to bars, pubs and parties.
Acknowledge and respect fellow Ambassadors.

Blue shirts or jackets and black pants or khaki’s are required for all events unless specifically stated by the advisor.

Be respectful of EOU property including following proper campus tour etiquette (no walking backwards, no walking on grass, no walking through parking lots, etc.)

Demonstrate appropriate office conduct when wearing your blue shirt (i.e. positive language, appropriate conversation topics, and suitable office mannerisms). Refrain from using profanity and telling inappropriate jokes while in your blue shirt.

Obey all Federal, State, and Local Laws.

Avoid violation of the EOU Student Code of Conduct. Individuals who have violated the Code of Conduct may be subject to dismissal from the program upon review of Advisors.

Should individuals step down from the program and/or be removed, current Ambassador gear must be returned. Failure to return gear may result in a charge to your student account.
