POSTER, JIM’S ASSISTANT

Thursday 4 to 9pm

Friday 7:30am to 9pm

Saturday 7:30am to 5:30pm.

Hi

I'm very glad to have you on board for this year's tournament.

Your primary job is to help Jim.

Jim is going to be frazzled at points, crazy busy, exhausted, whiney, etc. at various points during the tournament. Your job is to help him get things done.

Your primary duties are going to be putting up the postings and giving people directions after they get their postings, laying out ballots, and getting food and running errands for Jim.

In your job, you may interact with the high school kids, coaches, and judges. It is important that you be nice, helpful, and supportive to them. Your exchanges with these folks is the number one impression they get of the college and specifically of our debate program.

These folks tend to be kind of "spaced out" in their own tournament world but they're also smart and almost always cooperative and helpful.

YOU SHOULD BE IN THE HUNTER FOYER AT 4pm on Thursday.

When you come to the ballroom, come up to me and tell me your name and job and I'll get you going.

Note that the tournament, particularly the beginning, tends to be crazy busy, especially for me.

So, I may be a bit delayed/distracted but just be nicely persistent and I'll be glad to get you started.

At 4pm on Thursday, Post the Tournament Entry Lists—Get those from Jim.

List of Debate Teams, IE Competitors, Judges, Student Congress Competitors, Schools, etc.

You Post one copy of these in Reid 110.

After you Post—Help Give Directions to People. This Means You do This:

Yell Out VERY LOUDLY—IF YOU WANT DIRECTIONS TO A BUILDING—COME SEE ME.

THEN NICELY TELL THEM WHERE TO GO—PHYSICALLY POINT TO WHERE THEY SHOULD WALK.
