CWGS Undergraduate Assistant – Paid opportunity for Fall 2017 and Spring 2018

The Center for Women’s & Gender Studies (CWGS) seeks an Undergraduate Assistant 

(5 hours/week at $10/hour) to help with the WGS Undergraduate Initiative (SAGE) program, and CWGS social media. 

 

The goal of SAGE is to connect like-minded students (WGS majors and other feminist/queer scholars), to build community, and to help grow the Women’s & Gender Studies major.  SAGE is open to all majors, minors, and any student interested in Women’s and Gender Studies.

SAGE operates with the help of two graduate student facilitators and one Undergraduate Assistant. All SAGE Team Members participate in creating and completing weekly action items.  The Undergraduate Assistant serves as the first contact for SAGE social media/publicity/emails announcements, acts as undergraduate major liaison/focus group of one, meets weekly with the SAGE facilitators, and coordinates CWGS social media.

As CWGS Social Media coordinator, the Undergraduate Assistant will work with the Senior Events Program Coordinator to promote CWGS events and programs on all social media outlets.

Ideal candidates should have an understanding of social justice and WGS issues; strong organizational skills; enthusiasm for working with undergrads, performing outreach, and promoting WGS scholarship; attention to detail and time management; and the ability to work within deadlines.

Interested candidates should send a letter of interest (addressing why are you interested in the position), resume/CV, and UT EID, to ajsalcedo@austin.utexas.edu
