Graduate Assistants, or GA's are hired by the Office of Residential Programs to live in columbia dormitories. They get a free room, and a $4200 stipend. Their purpose is unknown, but according to the website, "through professional experiences, the graduate assistants support the mission and needs of our office and gain transferable skills." Administration-speak at it's best.
Candidates for the GA position should be enrolled in a Columbia University graduate school. First year law, dental, medical, business, and social work students are ineligible due to the fact that "the academic requirements and job responsibilities are too great."
