SiGMA Officer Nominations
Updated: May 09, 2008
Greetings!
It's hard to believe that the semester is soon wrapping up and bidding close to another fine academic year. It's been my pleasure to play a role in ushering in various SiGMA activities throughout these months, and I genuinely think that we've made worthwhile strides towards maintaining and improving the graduate student quality of life in this esteemed department.
Now I'd like to share that pleasure with you. This week we'll be welcoming nominations for officer positions in SiGMA next year. If you're at all interested in participating in SiGMA and ensuring its success/survival, let me encourage you to please seriously consider nominating yourself for an office. In all honesty, the time and energy requirements are minimal and the outcomes generate a pleasant sense of accomplishment (which can be especially appreciated when research results let you down). There are other benefits as well, including the opportunity to meet other students, develop leadership skills, and generate extracurricular talking points for a resume or job interview.
There are five offices available:
President
Vice President
Treasurer
Professional Development Director
Social Director

To wrap it up: SiGMA can literally unleash your inner potential and give you and our department amazing powers and opportunities. Nominate yourself or your cohorts for an officer position this week. Oh yeah, and there's another happy hour in the works soon.
Many thanks for your tireless attention,
Justin
