Ready for Career Fair?



If you are planning on attending career fair this Friday-- or planning on getting a job someday, 
you may want to attend our free resume & professional development workshop tonight (Monday) from 5-6 in Alumni, Room 1. We are having a professional development specialist come in from Miami's Career Center to help everyone clean up our resumes to make them look spic and span, and ready to hand out to our visiting firm reps on Friday. 

Bring your friends and who ever sits next to you in studio and let's get professional!

Elections!



It's that time of year again--
The time when we start thinking about who is going to take things over for next year!

At our next all-member meeting, this Wednesday, March 15th at 5pm in Alumni Room 1, we will re-introduce our exec board and tell you about what we do. If you are interested in running for a position, even if you have never served on an exec board before, come check it out and see if it's for you!

(You can also sit in on any of our exec meetings, which meet every Monday at 5pm in the breakout room off of the research lab studio/wind tunnel.)

From my personal experience, I think its fair to say that I've learned just as much from my positions in AIAS than I have from most of my classes. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at pytlikse@muohio, or talk to any of our current exec members:

(Here's a run down)


Chapter President - Sarah Pytlik
Vice President - Stephen Young
Treasurer - Cameron Konop
Secretary -  McKinley Mertz
Social Chairs - Rachel Momenee & Meagan Calnon
Freedom By Design Chair - Mary Dickerson
Fundraising Chair - Kendall Claus & Anna Adkins
Graphics - Carolyn LeCompte & Gabrielle Steffel
Fall Quad Chairs - Tyler Rice & Anna Adkins
Blog/Website - Jenni Cahill
Firm Coordinators - Tyler Rice, Jeff Kloosterman & Meredith Miller

Class Representatives - Hannah Pempus, Juan Restrepo, Julia Munro, Kris Kunkle, Michelle Parrish & Mike Bednar, Tiffany Jenkins



Also,...

keep in mind that there are NATIONAL AIAS (PAID) POSITIONS that you can run for each winter at FORUM. We haven't had anyone from Miami run in the past two years, but three years ago, our past president Brett Roeth was elected as National Vice President, and served for a year in Washington, DC. Not only is this is a real post-grad job opportunity, but it's a great way to progress within the profession and network before you take the next step. This isn't immediate, but it's something to think about long-term, and you would need exec board experience within the AIAS in order to run.

See you on Wednesday!

Field Trip!

Ok, so how many of you went to Spring Quad last year at UK? Remember THEIR Beaux Arts Ball? If you don't, let me just say this... 3,000 people, 9 DJs, huge warehouse party. This year our friends Madelynn Ringo and Donovan Justice were on the Beaux Arts board, so let's go visit! Let me (sarah) know if you are interested in going, if we have enough people that want to go we can try and set up a carpool thing and get a room for the night.

April 9th. UK's Massive Beaux Arts Party.

Don't forget to thank our social chairs, Rachel Momenee & Meagan Calnon for putting it together!

Cheers from the Social Chairs :)

Comment and let us know how your night went! ;)

Revit Workshop


AIAS is hosting a Revit Workshop this Wednesday, Feb. 23rd (tomorrow) at 5:00 pm in Room 1 during our All-Member meeting. We will cover all the club stuff in the first ten minutes, then hand it off to Brian Albrecht, who will be giving a tutorial/workshop on Revit until 6:00 pm. We will also be selling PIZZA during the workshop, handing out club t-shirts to those who still need to pick them up, and selling Beaux Arts tickets to any late-comers. 

If you are a member, plan to come for at least the first 15 minutes to get information on what we're doing this month & pick up a shirt! 



DANCE PARTY

Due to a burst of last minute enthusiasm, we are extending ticket sales until Wednesday, Feb 23rd, in both the Atrium and at Shriver Box Office. If you haven't been to a Beaux Arts yet, you have no idea what  you are missing! 

Listen to Gaga, and JUST DANCE.
