Student representative sought for presidential search
|
The USI Student Government Association is seeking full-time students to apply for a position on the Presidential Search Committee charged with recommending qualified individuals to lead USI as its next president. President H. Ray Hoops, who was appointed president in 1994, has announced plans to retire in June 2009. The committee will be broadly representative of the University’s constituencies. In addition to being full-time, students applying for the position must be in good standing with a minimum GPA of 2.5; attend USI through spring semester 2009; have completed two semesters at USI by the time of appointment; and be well involved within the University. Deadline for applications is 4:30 p.m. Thursday, March 6, to be considered for an interview. Interested students will complete an application form, write a 300-word essay addressing why they are interested in the position and what they can contribute to the committee, supply a letter of recommendation from a USI faculty or staff member, and submit an activity resume. Applications are online at www.usi.edu/sga or in the Dean of Students Office, UC 007. Completed applications should be submitted to the Dean of Students Office before the deadline. Questions about the application process can be addressed to Kristina M. Pelly, SGA president, at sga@usi.edu or by calling 812/465-1109. |
