Hello all! My name is Alecia Jefferson, and I'm the HTS representative for the Ivan Allen College Student Advisory Board. You've probably gotten a few emails about this already, so I wanted to tell you about my personal experience serving on the SAB.I was selected to be on the Board in my sophomore year. I had heard of the organization before but had no intention to apply until my advisor asked me to. Looking at the website I realized that the SAB wasn't just another club, but a serious organization dedicated to the advancement of liberal arts at Georgia Tech.
My involvement with the SAB makes a good resume line of course, but it's been so much more than that. I've become friends with some cool people I probably never would have met otherwise and made some fun memories. I formed a great relationship with Dr. Tone (HTS professor and Associate Dean of the Ivan Allen College) who wrote me a recommendation for an summer internship in Washington, D.C. which turned out to be the best one I've had thus far. I've gained confidence, learned how to network and helped coordinate events like Networking Night, Freshman Social and the recent liberal arts Town Hall.
I've enjoyed every minute of my time on the SAB and would do it all over again if I could, but I'll be graduating in the spring. We need a new HTS Representative and it's time for me to pass the torch...and to YOU! Go to http://www.sab.iac.gatech.edu/ to download and complete the application. Please email Ted Danowitz, the SAB Vice-President, (tdanowitz@gatech.edu) with any questions about the application process. If you'd like more info on what my position entails, feel free to ask me (ajefferson3@gatech.edu). Thanks and we hope to hear from you soon!
