(2) Student Officer Leadership Summit signups

The following is an announcement from the SAO about the upcoming Student Leadership Summit that was distributed to group executive leaders through an email from Engage. If you have questions on the summit or this announcement, please refer to the contact email listed below:

The Student Officer Leadership Summit, a required program for all ASA-recognized organizations and Club Sports, will provide necessary tools to help make student organizations at MIT more successful through immersive training.  This prestigious summit, held on Saturday, September 21st from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM in the Stratton Student Center, includes a variety of workshops, impactful dialogues, and conversations with key leadership on campus.  Come prepared to engage with fellow student leaders and to reflect on your role as a leader at MIT.

We are making this investment to help support MIT student organizations.  Each organization is required to send one presidential-level member – or an executive board proxy. See you in September!

Register Here by Friday, September 6th at 11:59 PM: <https://engage.mit.edu/submitter/form/start/331857>

This is a reminder to sign up for a space at the fall activities midway here: https://engage.mit.edu/submitter/form/start/323474 before midnight TOMORROW night (8/20/2019). This year's Fall Activities Midway will take place Friday August 30 from 14:30 to 16:30 ET in the Johnson Ice Rink.

For groups requesting music for performances, please be on the lookout for details and a link to upload music sometime in the week leading up to the midway. We'll send that out once we have the performance schedule.

For students with early returns for your group, you will need to check in with an ASA representative at the midway personally so we can confirm that you were there.
