5. Student Event Team
-Due to the amount of events hosted by students, we are always looking for volunteers to help with going to an event hosted by a student and manage anything that might come up. Our staff will train you on the event, the student's responsibilities, and the important contacts you will need to know. Your job is to just show up and help the student if needed.
