Institute of Politics Student Advisory Council 2013-2014

Applications now being accepted for the 2013-2014 Institute of Politics Student Advisory Council. Undergraduate and graduate students are encouraged to apply. The goal of the Student Advisory Council is to provide input on the Institute of Politics’ programs, events, and processes and to play a leading role in the execution of such programs in conjunction with Institute of Politics staff members. Student Advisory Council members will have several important roles, which will include both assisting with Institute programming and devising new events and programs that they would then plan and execute as a Council. The Student Advisory Council will serve throughout the 2013-2014 academic year, with some minimal responsibilities this spring 2013 and over the summer of 2013. Students studying abroad during the spring of 2013 are eligible to apply, and students studying abroad NO MORE than one quarter during the 2013-2014 year are also eligible to apply.

Structure: The Student Advisory Council will consist of 15 members, at least 50 percent of whom will be undergraduates and at least 25 perent of whom will be graduate students. All members are required to attend a minimum of two weekly meetings throughout the year—one with the whole Council and one with their specific Committee. The time commitment for serving on this Council will be approximately six to ten hours per week. The Council will report to Dillan Siegler, Senior Associate Director for Internships and Student Civic Engagement at the Institute of Politics.
