What is the College Student Leader Board?

The College Student Leader Board (SLB) consists of approximately 18 members and was created to act as a liaison between Volunteer Services, the student volunteers, and the supervisory staff in their assigned areas. These leadership positions were constructed to coordinate the 800+ college student volunteers contributing throughout the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics in any given year. The SLB members are facilitators and managers for the college volunteers, serving to make the volunteer experience both more enjoyable and worthwhile. SLB members attend monthly board meetings, build relationships with their staff volunteer supervisors, schedule and coordinate orientations for their volunteers and mentors, and administer in general the volunteer schedule for their unit.

How do I become a Student Leader Board member?

College student volunteers usually apply for an SLB position at the end of their sophomore year, but freshmen and juniors are welcome to apply as well. It is recommended, but is not required, that applicants have at least 50 volunteer hours when applying. Applications are available at the beginning of the spring semester in the volunteer unit binders, in the Volunteer Services Office, or online (link below), and may be submitted in the Volunteer Services Office, open 8-5 Monday through Friday.

Applications for the 2011-2012 College Student Leader Board may be turned in to the Volunteer Services office January 24, 2011 through February 11, 2011.
