UB applications avaibable

The University Board is seeking applicants for five coordinator positions to open up this fall.

Lectures, movies, graphic design, public relations and productions will all be in need of coordinators, UB Vice Chair Caleb Judy said Friday.

The lectures coordinator puts together lectures and forums on a wide variety of topics.

Movies will show a new-release movie every Saturday school is in session next year.

Graphic design will design posters, flyers, logos and other visual communication for all UB committees and for UB itself.

The public relations coordinator writes press releases and deals with the news media.

Productions is in charge of such technical aspects as sound and lighting, and gets paid an hourly wage, Judy said.

Starting this year, all coordinators will receive a monthly stipend of around $50, but the amount will not be final until the UB budget is approved, Judy said. To provide this stipend, the tuition waiver previously offered to the productions coordinator has been removed.

“They (the other coordinators) work just as hard,” Judy said.

Applications are available in the Student Activities Center, located on the second floor of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union across from Copy Express. They are due today at 4 p.m. and interviews will take place Monday and Tuesday evenings, Judy said.

Judy said the coordinator positions are a great opportunity to get job experience and get involved on campus.

Anyone with questions can call the UB office at 581-5117.
