抖阴旅行射

The Conference on World Affairs would like to get YOU involved with this exciting event on campus!聽抖阴旅行射-Boulder students play an integral role in the planning and execution of the CWA. If you are looking for IAFS 4930 Internship credit, this is an approved internship, but you must speak with Vicki Hunter to ensure you can receive credit, so visit our Internships webpage.

There are numerous ways to get involved and to rub elbows with some of the world's brightest minds. The CWA is made up of vast network of engaged, committed volunteers. University faculty, staff and students work alongside local community members to plan and host the week's public events, as well as the participants' transportation, housing and social functions.聽The 68th Annual Conference on World Affairs will be held April 4-8, 2016. Visit the CWA Volunteer website for complete information:聽.聽Below are areas that you can get involved in and volunteer:

SUBCOMMITTEES

The Committee for the Conference is composed of 抖阴旅行射 students, faculty, staff and local community members, who serve together on various subcommittees. The seven subcommittees that work on planning the annual program are organized by broad subject areas as follows:

-Arts
-Business
-Human Condition
-International Affairs
-Politics & Media
-Science & Technology
-Student Perspectives

During the fall semester, subcommittees work together on recruiting new speakers (40 percent of invitations), as well as deciding which veteran participants to re-invite (60 percent).聽During the early spring semester when the invitation process has been completed, subcommittee work focuses on drafting possible panel sessions, which are based on the topics suggestions that participants submit. The CWA does not have a pre-set agenda but asks the participants to inform the planning committee what THEY want to talk about.聽Student volunteers are welcome to participate in any (or as many) subcommittees as they would like鈥攐r may decide to only attend the student group meetings. Meeting schedules for each subcommittee can be聽.

MARKETING

The CWA is one of the most well attended events by students on campus, with over a quarter of the 77,000 audience being students. But we never stop working to increase student participation and to let 抖阴旅行射 students know this event is for them! For opportunities to become involved in student outreach and marketing, please contact Amanda Roper at聽cwapress@colorado.edu.

DRIVING

Student volunteers provide transportation to and from Denver International Airport, as well as to local events during the week. The Conference utilizes University of Colorado vehicles, so it is not necessary to own a car to be a driver! Driving the participants is a great opportunity to have fascinating conversations with some truly remarkable people.

AMBASSADOR

Each participant has a 抖阴旅行射 student volunteer assigned to them as an "ambassador." The student ambassador offers to act as a point of contact during their stay in order to assist and answer any questions that may arise鈥攁nd also gives the participant a commemorative CWA pin. This is an excellent ice-breaker to meet and open conversation with a participant.

PRODUCING

For each panel session, a student or community committee member is assigned to work behind the scenes to coordinate logistics for that event. This includes introducing panel members to the moderator, leading them from CWA headquarters to the venue and ensuring that the session's physical needs are in order (microphones are working, water is available, name cards are in place). The producer stays in the back of the venue throughout the session to make sure everything runs smoothly.

FLAGS

The colorful international flags lining the main walkway through Norlin Quad is a sure sign that 抖阴旅行射's annual rite of spring鈥攖he Conference on World Affairs鈥攊s back! The student volunteers who assemble the flags and then put them up each day take special pride in the brilliant visual display they create鈥攁nd the impact it makes on the tens of thousands who pass through the Quad that week.
