Calling all UO Alumni Living in Chicago, Minneapolis and Phoenix!

The Alumni Association and the Office of Admissions have developed a recruitment volunteer program and we are looking for assistance from our best alumni to reach potential new students. We are seeking help in Chicago, Minneapolis and Phoenix where alumni can make a real difference in recruiting new students.

Alumni volunteers in this position help the Office of Admissions with college fairs, information programs, and other special projects. Selected alumni will participate in an on-campus training program every other year, and receive ongoing support.

Alumni recruitment volunteers commit to a two-year term (two academic years) of service, participating in approximately five to ten college fairs, high school programs or admission sponsored events each academic year. They may also be asked to conduct a focused phone calling or letter writing project in the winter and spring months. These volunteers also aid in identifying top recruits and may meet or talk with individual families engaged in the college selection process. With the exception of the on-campus training, all activities will be in the home area and is very flexible to fit within the personal schedule of the alumni recruiter.

Your on-campus training would be scheduled once every two years in September. If you are selected to participate, the University will cover your travel and lodging expenses to campus, provide you with two full days of admissions and territory management information necessary for you to be a confident recruiter, and one ticket to an Oregon football game.

If this opportunity interests you, please contact Jessica Laux at 800-BE-A-DUCK or jlaux@uoregon.edu for more information and an application.
