Hello friends!

DormCon is electing new REX/CPW chairs, i3/RAC Chairs, and a Treasurer!

No prior student government experience required - just enthusiasm, and a desire to improve your community and make awesome things happen! All class years are welcome!

REX/CPW Chairs
The DormCon CPW/REX chairs oversee of all the dormitories' events during two of the best times of the year. They work closely with Admissions in creating the CPW booklet and communicate with dorm CPW chairs to ensure a great CPW. They are also responsible for coordinating REX (Residential Exploration) and publishing the REX booklet by coordinating with all of the dorms. This is a great opportunity to have a say in the way that MIT welcomes its freshmen and to help create the excitement that brought us all here!

We elect 1-2 each year. If you have any questions, contact [email-masked]<https://owa.exchange.mit.edu/owa/?ae=Item&a=New&t=IPM.Note&email=mailto%3aadrianaj%40mit.edu>.

i3/RAC Chairs
The DormCon i3/RAC chair has two main jobs - in the spring, they are the student point person for making the i3 project happen and throughout the year they serve as the DormCon liaison to the dorm rooming assignment chairs! On the i3 side, the i3 (Interactive Introduction to the Institute) serves to introduce the incoming freshmen to the various wonderful dorms and dorm cultures at MIT. The i3/RAC Chair helps coordinate the process of creating and distributing the i3s by coordinating between administrators and the dorm i3 chairs. They also meet with dorm rooming assignment chairs and help to ensure good communication and knowledge sharing among the dorm RACs. Lots of exciting opportunities for change as MIT seeks to improve our housing policies and bolster student training!

We elect 1-2 each year. If you have any questions, contact [email-masked]<https://owa.exchange.mit.edu/owa/?ae=Item&a=New&t=IPM.Note&email=mailto%3aedwardss%40mit.edu>.

Treasurer
The DormCon Treasurer keeps track of all things monetary. They are responsible for creating a budget for the semester and updating it throughout the term. Additionally, they are in charge of bringing all funding proposals that need approval to Presidents' meetings so that large events throughout the school year can receive DormCon funds.

**Note: We will elect 1 that will serve for the Spring 2019 semester only. If you have any questions, contact [email-masked]<https://owa.exchange.mit.edu/owa/?ae=Item&a=New&t=IPM.Note&email=mailto%3agloverkr%40mit.edu>

Additionally, note that each of these positions are part of DormCon exec. This means that, in addition to your particular area of focus, you will get to be a part of many conversations and decisions surrounding all aspects of dormitory life at MIT.

The election is being held at the next DormCon meeting, at 7:30 PM on Thursday, Nov. 29th, in Simmons. If you would like to have your platform emailed out before the meeting, you must email it to [email-masked]<https://owa.exchange.mit.edu/owa/?ae=Item&a=New&t=IPM.Note&email=mailto%3adormcon-execer%40mit.edu> no later than 5 pm Tuesday, Nov 27.
