LEAD Positions Application Information
Criteria for Applying Students:
Thank you for your interest in becoming a member of the 2012-2013 Leadership Team in the LEAD Scholars Program. You will find a listing of each leadership position that is available in an attached booklet as well as under each position on the application page. Each opportunity is detailed with a position description, requirements, and responsibilities.
In order to apply for a position applicants need to have a minimum GPA of 3.0 and be in good standing with the program. Applicants must also be able to attend the required retreats that are listed for each position as well as register for the specific courses for Mentors and LSA/LEB.
All application material is due by February 29, 2012 at 5p. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Disclaimer: Unfortunately, if you have already been selected as a Resident Assistant or Orientation Leader for the 2012-2013 Academic year, RA training and O-Team conflicts with REEL Retreat and other required engagements. Due to this conflict, you will not be able to hold a 2nd Year Leadership position.
At the time, Sorority Recruitment dates for the fall have yet to be finalized. Students planning on participating in Sorority Recruitment may encounter conflicts with the August retreat dates. Please contact Fraternity and Sorority Life to request information about Sorority Recruitment dates and time.
Application Process:
Students may apply to up to five (5) leadership positions. Be advised that a student cannot serve as a Mentor, LSA Board Member or LEB Board Member at the same time. However, a student can apply to be a REEL Advisor and also serve as Mentor, LSA Director or LEB Director at the same time.
Students will need to list their top positions they desire in order and complete the required essays for each position. Students also need to submit a resume as well as a statement listing other leadership positions outside of LEAD that they have applied to and/or will hold a leadership position in.
Upon completion, students who applied to a REEL Counselor or Mentor position will need to come to the office to sign up for an individual and/or group interview (Mentor applicants are required to attend a group interview AND an individual interview). Students who applied to a position on LSA or LEB will be contacted by current board members to set up an interview.
*LSA Director applicants must also obtain 100 signatures of current first or second year LEAD Scholars students. Blank signature packets can be picked up at the front desk of the LEAD Scholars office. ALL CURRENT LSA BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEMBERS AND COMMITTEE CHAIRS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR SIGNATURES.
Please review the Leadership Booklet to review the position requirements and the important dates to remember.
