Symposium Assistant Positions
Graduate students who are interested
in assisting in the symposium rooms during the 2002 MRS Fall
Meeting are encouraged to apply for a Symposium Assistant position.
Symposium assistants deliver essential meeting materials to and
from the technical sessions, operate audio-visual equipment and
room lighting, track and record attendance, and perform other
tasks requested by the session chairs. By assisting in a minimum
of four half-day sessions, students will receive a complimentary
student registration, a one-year MRS student membership commencing
January 1, 2003, and a stipend to help defray expenses. Symposium
assistant positions will be assigned on a first-come, first-served
basis, as needed.
