The Roosevelt Institution
• Events
- Events are a crucial part of establishing Roosevelt on campus, recruiting members, creating unity amongst the chapter, and can be a fundraising tool as well.
- Different team members will lead different events. Leaders of an event arises organically depending on the type of event and which committees are most involved in organizing it. For example, for an event hosting a professor speaking, the University Relations will direct that event. If a person from the outside community speaks, the Community Relations director might organize it. If it is a recruitment event, the Outreach Director will lead the event.
-Communications does press for an event, outreach handles campus publicity for an event.
-Finance figures out the financial aspects
-University Relations publicizes it to the departments and recruits speakers,
-Community Outreach director can do publicity and can help get speakers from the community as well.
-The policy director tends to be more involved in policy-related events, but is also responsible for getting the policy center members involved in events when appropriate.
- The chapter began with one events director, but that role did not work out because different admin directors took charge of different events. In the end, the chapter found that the events team should consist all directors on the administrative committee.
