[Grogospeak] Technique Junior Manboard Elections this Saturday

[Nick Wiltsie]

Hey everybody,

The TL/DR summary of everything below:

Junior Manboard members get free photo printing, and get listed in the back
of the book.
Senior Manboard members get the above AND get keys to the equipment
cabinets.

Elections are this Saturday.


Full Version:

We're getting deep into book-making season - and that means we need your
help!  We're in desperate need of a Sports Editor and a Film Editor, and our
other editors each need someone they can depend upon when that distraction
known as schoolwork gets in the way of their Technique responsibilities.

That's where you come in!  Junior Manboard members team up with their Senior
counterparts to make sure each section is getting done in a timely manner -
be it Activities, Design, Photo Editing, etc.  *Junior Manboard members will
be listed as such in the back of the book, and will have a vote in the
Senior Manboard elections in the Spring!  You also get free printing on the
roll printer in the back office.*

The purpose of this is really to get all the younger members involved - we
need help putting the book together, and we need to pass down the knowledge
of how that is actually accomplished before we all graduate.  We pass down
knowledge and share the burden of making the book, and you get a lot of
creative control and credit for making one of the best yearbooks in the
country, a voice in how the club progresses in the future, and some printing
perks.

As you may have noticed, *we're lacking a Sports Editor and a Film Editor*;
this explains the relative absence of pressure to shoot sports photography
and the very minor role film and the darkroom have played thus far. * These
positions are Senior Manboard positions - they will require a larger time
commitment than the Junior positions, but in return you'll get a key to the
equipment cabinet so you can check out cameras anytime you like.*

If you're interested in running for a position, just show up to the
elections this Saturday (October 29) at 1pm!  Only Manboard members get a
vote, but everyone can lobby for themselves.  Feel free to talk to me or any
other Manboard member if you have any questions.
