We are looking for enthusiastic students who will help make our Summer Conference Housing program a success! Conference Assistants are responsible for a variety of duties including welcoming guests to The University of Memphis, checking guests in and out, responding to emergencies, supervising desk activities, inspecting rooms to insure they are ready for conference groups, and going "beyond the call of duty" to assist guests in any way possible.
