Information about being a Coordinator!
What are the different coordinator roles at education frosh?
Education frosh has a bunch of coordinator roles, two of which are help by the EdUS co-VP Internals:
Do I need to apply to be a leader or o-staff to be a coordinator?
We ask that everyone applying to be a coordinator for education frosh also applies to be a leader or o-staff in case you are not chosen! We have to pick from lots of amazing candidates every year and do not want you to miss out on the amazing experience of frosh if we are not able to choose you as a coordinator.
Is it a lot of work to be a coordinator?
Honestly, yes. Being a frosh coordinator is a serious commitment and does require lots of work - but it is so worth it! You will make lifelong friends by meeting new people from education and other faculties. Being a frosh coordinator is truly one of the best experiences and the heavy workload is worth it!

Education frosh has a bunch of coordinator roles, two of which are help by the EdUS co-VP Internals:
- Internal: Slightly different from the VP Internal position on EdUS, this person sits in the Internal Organization Committee (IOC) and is essentially responsible for overseeing all aspects of education frosh. This role is always held by one of the EdUS co-VP Internals, this year Shawn will be our Internal!
- Chair: This role exists when the role of VP Internal is held by two people on EdUS council. This person also sits as a non-voting member of the IOC board and makes all of the big decisions with the Internal. The Chair also holds another role on the education coordinator team. This year Bailey is our Chair.
- Logistics: This person is responsible for planning the events at frosh. They make the schedule, book venues and are responsible for making sure that every event goes off without a hitch. Typically this role is also help by the Chair, but depending on applicants could be held by someone else!
- Chief of Staff: This person is responsible for our leaders and o-staff. They will sit on any inter-faculty training redesign committees and organize our education bondings and trainings.
- Communications: This person is responsible for our social media pages, graphics, and all other promotional material. Our communications coordinator has a lot of creative liberty and is responsible for making sure that our sick theme is well represented.
- Sponsorships: This person creates partnerships between education frosh and local businesses. Our sponsorships coordinator creates new connections with businesses and maintains existing ones. Bonus: getting us super cool free stuff!
- Inclusivity and Sustainability: This person sits on the interfaculty Inclusivity and Sustainability Committee (ISC) and is responsible for making frosh inclusive and sustainable in our programming, training and media presence.

- Inter-Faculty: This person sits on the Inter-Faculty Committee (IFC) and is responsible for organizing inter-faculty events with representatives from the other faculty froshes. In the past, these events have included inter-faculty concerts, beach day and inter-faculty games night.
