2010 Student Leadership Institute!

Focusing on the social change model of leadership, the 2010 Student Leadership Institute will invite you to “Be the Change” for your community and/or your organization. Whether you are a seasoned student leader who wants to inspire your organization to grow or an up-and-coming leader who is looking to find your personal passion or niche, this is your chance to grow and get to know other student leaders on campus. All students are welcome to be a part of this institute; you can participate with members of your student organization or independently. All students must register individually; during the sign-in process you will be able to indicate whether you wish to participate independently or with your fellow club members.

The Student Leadership Institute is a 4-week program, and there will be two separate 4-week sessions.

Session 1 will take place on Fridays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. beginning on Jan. 29 and ending on Feb. 19.

Session 2 will take place on Fridays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. beginning on March 19 and ending on April 9.

The Deadline to register for Session I is Friday, Jan. 22. Further details regarding meeting locations and activities will be distributed upon registration.

AMSA on the Breezeway

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

Hello AMSA members!

Hope you guys are all haveing a great weekend :)

On October 19-21 (monday-wednesday) and October 26-28 (monday-wednesday) of the week after from 1030am-2pm AMSA will have a table set up on the breezeway to promote The Breast Cancer Charity Fashion Show and The Gore Gallery (which I am very excited for !) and of course also to allow students to become more familiar with AMSA.

We will need at least 3-4 people to man the tables and volunteer hours will be given. If you can only do it for an hour thats cool too just let me know by emailing me back with the date(s) and time(s) you can be at the tables :) Bonus in doing this: a good opportunity to be involved with AMSA and get to know the members/officers !

We’ll be out there 1030am-2pm if you have questions or drop off membership fees/applications, gore gallery(!), breast cancer fashion show or just cause you want to say hi, we’ll take that too :)

Have a Good One guys
