The Student Employment Office has come up with recommended hourly rate guidelines for paying students that perform work that is one-time only (i.e.; DJs, musicians, photographers and videographers). These recommendations are based upon an audit of the Temp Cards that had been submitted last academic year and the inconsistency in rates that students were getting paid for performing similar work across campus.
See ‘What’s the pay rate for a student who performed work that was one-time?’ here: http://www.middlebury.edu/offices/business/seo/toolbox/faqs
Again, these guidelines are just to help ensure that students are paid consistently. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!
