Work Environment

The duPont-Ball Library is a typical academic library with spaces for collaboration, discussion, or independent study. Noise levels are at a medium level on the main floor where collaborative study is encouraged. The perimeter areas in the building are more conducive to independent study.

Work authorization sponsorship may be available for this position. However, sponsorship is contingent upon the non-applicability of the visa petition fees outlined in the relevant Executive Order signed September 19, 2025. Due to the recent federally-mandated increased financial expense, the university is not in a position to absorb this significantly increased cost of sponsorship for new H-1B petitions at this time. International candidates are encouraged to apply, but should be aware that eligibility for sponsorship will be evaluated in accordance with current U.S. immigration regulations and institutional policies.

This position is not benefit eligible. Stetson University offers non-benefit eligible employees the option to make elective contributions to their retirement through TIAA.
