As Museum Secretary, it is my job to schedule all guards. It has been my experience that student guards are generally quite dependable and professional when properly instructed. In addition to students, we also have a number of volunteer guards. This aides in covering any time when students are not available due to class conflicts. In my opinion, the efficiency of a guard rests mainly on how this person was trained and knowing what is expected of them.
