Although each board regular member is mostly committed to organizing the Year Representation and recruiting, we also have our own functions which are described below. Sometimes the functions overlap, and we help each other where necessary! Every board member is also encouraged to take part in projects that run in the faculty. A new position has been added from 2022 August that is also described below.
Chairperson
The Chairperson is the face of Quest! You will keep track of the overall progress in YR recruitment, lead the board meetings, and keep contact with external parties such as the Faculty Board and the EBF.
