On Thursday, July 20, 2017, we held a productive meeting in the JP student lounge to discuss some of the ideas and projects BIG has in their pipeline. We would love to have you join in and help! Below are a few of the projects that could use more hands:

 

 

  • Blog Managers/Editors: 
    • Hanny Rivera, Joleen Heiderich, Hannah Mark, Lizzie Wallace
    • Responsibilities: Edit and suggest content for the BIG blog, write posts when necessary, encourage people to sign up

  • Resources Editors: 
    • Hanny Rivera, Megan May 
    • Responsibilities: We would like our new website to contain up to date resources on a variety of topics (e.g. communications, policy, fellowships, etc). Help us build this up. Regularly check links and update lists as needed.

    • Not sure if you want to stay in the academic route after JP? Help us plan alternative careers (e.g. policy, consulting, industry, teaching, journalism, anything else you’re interested in) panel.
