On-campus employment opportunities include weekend stable worker, head of tack, and office assistant. For example, an assistant to the stable manager coordinates labor and supplies for 60 horses in work, while also pursuing special projects in budgeting and management. The student-run Riding Council lends spirit and leadership on a peer level to the entire program. Students lead the way in formulating and carrying out the policies, rules, and regulations of the Riding Program. Other Riding Council members help current riders improve and enjoy their riding, as well as teach new riders about the program.
Assistants learn while getting hands-on experience and earning extra money.
Riding Fellows Program Riding fellowships, tailored to the needs and objectives of new riding teachers, are available for both SBC and non-SBC graduates. Riding fellows teach students at certain levels, receive mounted instruction, and participate in all of the lecture courses. Additional responsibilities vary depending on a fellow's interests, experience, and skills.
