New Service Opportunity:

 
I am looking for 2-4 grad students to serve on a Graduate Liaison & Recruitment Committee. Committee members will act as liaisons to those students who are considering our program and for our incoming grad students. The outreach roles will involve peer mentoring and some work on social media. Responsibilities include having your name and contact info listed on the blog and on the grad program facebook page as a contact person. You will be fielding both lifestyle questions and the general program questions. For instance, you may be asked about housing in Logan, outdoor recreational opportunities and community programs for singles or students with families, campus activities, department community, the social aspects of GI-ships, research facilities, faculty teaching styles and research areas, teaching responsibilities, and general logistics questions that might concern new students. You will also be expected to post regularly on the program Facebook page.  Interested students would also be welcome to post video clips about life on campus, in the department, in Logan (for instance, a virtual tour of the fourth floor offices or a clip of a group of you hiking in the canyon). You may also be asked to participate in development of a recruitment video that will be produced by a professional advertising organization.  If you are interested in this service opportunity, please email Evelyn.  We will have a meeting before semester’s end to discuss how to proceed. I would expect committee members to serve a one year term. Thanks!
