>Dear Academic Administrators,
>
>Our office is in need of paid facilitators for our Seminar XL 
>Program. We are reaching out to you in the hopes that you can let 
>students know who may be interested in participating in the program 
>as facilitators. It is a 3-hour weekly commitment. Our enrollment 
>for the program for this fall is significant so the sooner we can 
>match facilitators with our student groups, the better. Please have 
>interested students contact Dr. Sekazi Mtingwa at the Office of 
>Minority Education (<mailto:mtingwa at mit.edu>mtingwa at mit.edu) as soon 
>as possible. Attached is a copy of our flyer and an application.
>
>What it takes to be a facilitator:
>
>
>Undergraduate student that has earned an A in the respective course
>Graduate student that has taken the course here at MIT or another institution
>Commitment to a group of undergraduate students that may be seeing 
>the subject material for the 1st time
>
>About Seminar XL:
>
>The program involves each group's meeting with a Facilitator for two 
>hours twice per week to discuss course concepts and problem-solving 
>techniques.  It is not conducted like a recitation class.  The 
>Facilitator only guides the discussions among the participants. 
>Seminar XL has been an extremely successful program, with few of its 
>participants getting into academic trouble.  However, it does 
>involve a commitment to attend and participate actively in at least 
>80% of its sessions.
>
>Thank you,
>Sandy
