The Best Student Job on Campus

Inside the Breslin Center, East Lansing, Mich.

As a Spartan there’s nothing more exciting than watching basketball in late March and early April. Throughout my four years at Michigan State I’ve been fortunate enough to see every single game held at the Breslin Center through my job on the usher staff. Although we don’t hold any March Madness games, the atmosphere at “the Bres” is always cheerful as we root for our team to bring home the big crystal ball.

This weekend wraps up my tenure at the Breslin Student Events Center during the MHSAA boys basketball state tournament. These weekends are always long but entertaining, as we often see future Spartans and other great basketball players in Michigan compete for a state title. It’s been a great place to work and grow as a student and a professional, interacting with patrons on a daily basis and providing them with excellent customer service.  The skills I’ve developed at Breslin will undoubtedly help me in my career in the near future. I’d challenge anyone on campus that says they have a better job than me– I am paid to interact with visitors, help them navigate the building and East Lansing, and see basketball games, family shows, and even concerts. Students would kill for the opportunity I’ve been fortunate enough to have since I was a freshman.

Thanks, Breslin for a great four years!
