Interested in volunteering for the 2006 SOM Leadership Conference?

To accommodate busy schedules, we will hold two informational meetings on Monday, January 23rd, the first from 3-3:45pm and the second from 5:15-6pm. You must attend one of these meetings to be eligible to volunteer for the conference.

Both meetings will be in Case Room 2 in the Mockler Building. A sign-up sheet will be posted in the Mockler Building for those interested in attending/volunteering.

Volunteers are essential to our success. In exchange for your contribution, you will be permitted to attend the conference FREE. (Conference fees are $470.00 for SOM students)

•All volunteers may attend Alfre Woodard’s closing keynote address.
•All volunteers will receive a complimentary conference bag.
•Volunteers have the opportunity to network with corporate sponsors and to interact with nearly 3000 attendees from the nation’s major corporations.
•Volunteering for the Leadership Conference shows your active support for the SOM. This is a “hands-on” way to show your support for your school.

Volunteering for the Conference requires the following minimum commitment:
•Attendance at the Monday, January 23rd meeting.
•One additional pre-Conference instructional meeting and tour to be held in April (2 options will be offered) at the Seaport World Trade Center.
•Half-day of work at the Leadership Conference.

Leadership Conference Date: Saturday, April 22, 2006

This year’s conference will be held during school vacation week. If you plan to be away during school vacation, please do not sign up to volunteer.

We need and genuinely appreciate your support. Your time and effort directly supports the SOM. All proceeds raised by the Leadership Conference fund SOM MBA scholarships.
