Orientation Chair
The Orientation Chair is responsible for the organization and execution of F!rosh Week. Since the event is so large and involves an operating budget of over $100,000, the Orientation Chair is often assisted by six vice-chairs. Each Vice-Chair manages one of six portfolios: Finance, Logistics, Community (previously Internal), Operations, Marketing, and Leadership. Each Vice-Chair oversees a group of subcommittee chairs & volunteers except for Vice-Chair Leadership, who oversees the Head Leedurs and the leedurs in addition to their subcommittees. The Orientation Chair is elected at the January Special Board of Directors Meeting so planning for Orientation can start earlier. For more information on Orientation itself, please see the F!rosh Week page.
Past Structure
The Orientation Chair was often assisted by a co-chair and three vice chairs until 2011. Each vice chair often oversaw one of three areas: Finance, Spirit, and Logistics .
