LEADERSHIP COMMITTEES
OS provides students with opportunities for leadership as well. The 2015 peer mentors, Jenna Fiore and
Anna Moloney, completed a legacy project creating an extensive infrastructure that enables more students
to work within the program. As a result of their thoughtful work, OS now has three committees in addition
to peer mentor leadership: event planning, recruitment, and social media. Every fall, students are invited
to submit applications for these paid positions in addition to two to three additional positions to serve
as student representatives at the OS Leadership Committee meeting and the joint faculty/staff meeting.
