As school is coming to a close, we're going to start looking at candidates that are interested in being a Mag Club officer next year. There are going to be 2 positions next year, so if you are interested please send me (katemparham@gmail.com) your resume with a brief decription of why you want to be whatever the position you're applying for is. Nothing fancy/formal, just a few sentences describing what you'd like do as an officer. Here are the 2 positions you can apply for:
1. President: The president is responsible for coordinating all meetings. There is no list of people that you can get to come speak, so your primary job as president is brainstorming ideas for meetings, researching who in the GA area could speak on that topic, and contacting said person to schedule a meeting. This is a lot more work than it sounds, and it requires a BIG time commitment. You will also have to contact Campus Reservations to request rooms for each meeting. In addition to all of that, the president oversees everything else that goes on with the club, is responsible for updating the website and getting the word out about meetings, sending out information over the listserv, and responding to emails. It's a great way to make some good connections in the magazine industry, not to mention a HUGE RESUME BUILDER!
2. Secretary/Treasurer: This person is responsible for handling all of the finances for Magazine Club. Basically, this position is the President's wingman. They buy the food for each meeting, collect dues, and keep track of all the paperwork. This person will also help the president in times of need. This is a great position for those that like math/accounting... but by no means is required.
OK... so, if you have any questions about the positions you can email the current president (yours truly at katemparham@gmail.com) or the current secretary, Marianne English.
Resumes and Cover letters are due by APRIL 19TH @ 7PM. New officers will be announced at the final Mag Club meeting of the semester, on April 23 @ 7 pm. Good luck!
