[UWAB] Georgia Tech Women's Leadership Conference Awards
by Jennifer Whitlow 17 Sep '12

17 Sep '12

She treats others with warmth, leads with passion, and radiates a glow that makes others do the same. So let the Women's Leadership Conference (WLC) and others females at Georgia Tech know about her! The WLC is looking to honor commendable female leaders who have been personally inspiring and will continue inspiring others with their story and their actions. Honoring such a woman at the WLC 2012 would not only be an excellent way to reward an admirable leader, but would also encourage females at Georgia Tech to do the same - to follow their passion and to make a change. Please consider nominating an outstanding faculty member, staff member, alumna, graduate student, and/or undergraduate student. Undergraduate and graduate students, in addition to being recognized at the WLC Conference November 2-3, will also receive a scholarship amount of $1000. The forms can be found at gtwlc.com<http://gtwlc.com/>. The nomination applications can be emailed to awards(a)gtwlc.com<mailto:awards@gtwlc.com> by 5:00 p.m. Friday, September 21, 2012.

We are trying to get a count so we know how many sandwiches we need. 2) We are considering the possibility of swapping our meeting time with another club, so that we meet from 7-8pm on Thursdays instead of 8-9. We would be in the same room. Please give your opinion through this survey by Wednesday : http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/96HR2NN 3) Finally, * WOMEN@CC ELECTIONS* will be this Thursday (from 8-9pm). This is a great way to get leadership experience and help out with all of the fun things we do! Even if you are new to the club, you are welcome to run. However, you will be expected to attend a majority of the club's meetings and events. PLEASE LET ALISSA OR KAITLIN KNOW BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO RUN and please prepare a short speech. The positions are: Secretary: The secretary takes the meeting minutes and e-mails them to members afterwards. Treasurer : The treasurer takes care of receipts and reimbursement forms, and collects meeting/event attendance. Webmaster: The webmaster maintains the Facebook group and events, as well as updating the Women@CC website with up-to-date information and pictures.
