Here are some FAQ (frequently asked questions) about other ways to get involved in the region. You can post additional questions in the THREADS section (scroll down) and the RMT will post answers.What are the roles to support regional events?There are several key roles (sometimes one person fills more than one role at an event); they are:
- Event Manager
- Coordinates event with the EVC (Events Coordinator) and EDC (Education Coordinator) by getting info out to region via wiki site and regional email; adjusts schedule, if needed, secures emcee, if needed,
- Runs meeting on site to make sure we adhere to schedule, introduces classes
- Makes sure guest faculty's needs are taken care of during classes
- Site Manager
- Works with EVC and hotel in planning of meeting needs before actual meeting(i.e. projectors, screens, rooms, water, air, etc. )
- During weekend, stays in close contact with hotel and EVC to ensure things run smoothly for each room being used
- Registration Manager
- Organizes registrations sent into her and prepares nametags for weekend
- Keeps a running spreadsheet of registrants and updates EVC and EDC periodically leading up to event
- Mans the registration table on site
- Housing Manager
- Takes in all housing reservations, coordinates the spreadsheet for the hotel indicating roommates and special requests
- Stays in close contact with EVC and hotel contact
- Reports any changes and/cancellations in rooms to hotel, copying in the EVC, ASAP
Can I help out at regional events without having to be formally in charge?Sure! We always need help handing out materials, setting up risers, etc. There is an Event Manager assigned to
Summer SINGsation,
Fall Fling, and
QT Workshop (you can find the
event details and managers here). Let the Event Coordinator know if you'd like to be a manager at a future event or let the Event Manager know you have a willing heart to help at a specific event!

events are designed by the
Education Steering Committee, which falls under the
Education Coordinator on the RMT. You can submit and idea for a class and the RMT will let you know if it fits into the scope of the event.
