Structure
of SPB:
SPB
is made up of seven committees. These committees include both programming and
support committees (to be discussed shortly). In addition, there is the
Chairperson of the Student Program Board who oversees the seven committees and
an Associate Chair who is the right-hand man (or woman) to the Chairperson. The
Chairperson is appointed by the President and Vice President of Student
Congress. The Chair will then interview and appoint the seven committee chairs
and Associate Chair that make up the Executive Board.
Committees:
There
are two types of committees in SPB, programming committees and support
committees. Programming committees have the responsibility of finding future
programming. In addition, they have to plan the logistics of current programs
and make sure that they run smoothly. Mainstage, Lecture, Annual Events,
Recreation and Leisure, and Visual and Performing Arts are programming
committees.
Support
committees have task functions relating to programming of the other committees.
Publicity is responsible for successfully publicizing the events of the Student
Program Board so that all students will be aware of SPB's events on campus.
Tech is also a support committee by providing lights, sound and stage set-up
for all events that require such. All of the SPB committees are essential in
ensuring the highest level of entertainment for Oakland University students...that
means YOU!
