Slots will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis, with priority given to full time students over part-time students until June 15, 2002. Benefits:
Responsibilities and attendance requirements: As a student volunteer, you will be expected to provide 15 hours of service during the five days of the conference in addition to assisting at tutorials. Typical jobs include staffing information stations, assisting at presentations and panels, and collecting tickets at various events. Assignments will be scheduled prior to the conference, but will be subject to change. Student volunteers are required to be available for the entire conference, beginning on Monday morning (July 8) through Friday morning (July 12), unless prior approval is granted by a Student Volunteer Co-Chair. Student volunteer meetings will take place at various times during the conference, at which attendance is required. How to register: If you are a full time student and you want to volunteer
to
work a tutorial please contact the student volunteer chair, Jeanine
Williamson, as soon as possible with your preferences. We will make every
effort to honor preferences, but volunteer slots are filled on a first-come,
first-served basis. You also have the option of attending and paying the
student rate for the tutorials if you would prefer to fully take the
tutorial. If you are working a tutorial, please do not register for the
tutorial on the online or mail/fax registration (you will get charged
for it). Travel & lodging: Unfortunately, UPA cannot provide travel or lodging subsidies to student volunteers. We encourage students to share rooms at the conference hotel, or at more affordable nearby alternatives. If you need assistance in finding a roommate, please contact the Student Volunteer chairs.
