Welcome to the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering service sign-up 2018-2019!
The Allen School culture is something we all care about and we need YOU to help us keep CSE awesome! Please volunteer for the service positions for the 2018-2019 academic year. Ideally we will have 2-3 people for each position to reduce the workload on any individual.
There are a variety of graduate student positions to volunteer for. These positions are held for one year and there are no term limits. More information on each position can be found here: http://www.cs.washington.edu/students/orgs/gsc/officers/. If you have any questions, please email Ari (ahai (at) cs) and Max (mchorton (at) cs) or ask the previous year's committee member (which you can find here: http://abstract.cs.washington.edu/wiki/index.php/Gsc2017).
