Love your K-State Libraries? Apply now to become a student ambassador
All students — whether first-year undergrads or doctoral candidates — are invited to become part of a select group that works to elevate the K-State Libraries' outreach and impact.
K-State Libraries Student Ambassadors serve two-year terms as advocates and representatives at social, cultural and recruitment activities. They also provide valuable feedback on K-State Libraries' initiatives and services.
Yasameen Albasri, current chair, says that it's an ideal moment to become an ambassador.
"There will be so many changes in the coming year as other floors reopen," Albasri said. "We want to add more students to our team of ambassadors who are equally excited to experience and promote the new space and the Libraries' services and incredibly supportive librarians."
Applications are due by Thursday, Sept. 5. Interviews will be conducted on Friday, Sept. 13. Ambassadors are also required to attend the annual retreat on Saturday, Sept. 21, and regular monthly meetings. More information is available on the ambassadors' website.
"Since the ambassadors' inaugural season in 2013, they've helped us host events, communicate with alumni and potential students and conduct discussions about the Libraries' future," said Darchelle Martin, one of the group's advisors. "We look forward to welcoming a new group of ambassadors from all walks of campus life."
