Continue the Auburn Spirit

The community, the people, the campus.

Internal politics in hiring practices and old south boys network mentality.

Advice to Senior Management

Open up to some fresh ideas and new faces from outside the AU system. Give a little respect and salary appreciation to the staff and support staff. The university can not function without them. Too much emphasis on faculty and sports!.

Pros

There is always immense pride associated with working at Auburn University, and you can get access to locked buildings for bathroom breaks during football tailgating

As a graduate teaching assistant, you don't really get any benefits and work way more hours than the number you are paid for. You may be asked to cover your main professor's class with very little notice.
