Student Activities

ECU NC Teaching Fellows and Maynard Scholars believe strongly in giving back to the community through volunteering. Each student will select a committee to serve on each year in which they work with groups of programmatic students to complete their committee obligations.

COMMITTEE CO-CHAIRS

Each committee has at least two student co-chairs that are responsible for planning and facilitating meetings and committee activities.  Co-chairs for the upcoming academic year are elected at the last committee meetings in the previous spring. 

Co-chairs are expected to do the following:

• Create and update a committee notebook with guidelines, expectations  and goals to pass along to future co-chairs;
• Facilitate and organize professional meetings;
• Mentor committee members;
• Develop a clear agenda prior to each meeting and provide a copy to the program staff prior to each meeting;
• Elect a committee secretary to record minutes from each meeting that will be reported to the program staff and posted in Blackboard under the Committee Group;
• Schedule committee members for concessions assignments and collect attendance for the program office;
• Collect attendance sheets following each meeting and deliver to the program staff in a timely manner; and
• Report committee happenings at Coordinating Council meetings.

COORDINATING COUNCIL

The Coordinating Council is the student governing group of the ECU Teaching Fellows and Maynard Scholars Programs.  This group consists of an elected representative from each class and committee co-chairs.  The Coordinating Council recommends program policies, evaluates program events, creates programming opportunities and reports on class and committee happenings.  The Council also meets with students that the director believes is not meeting program requirements.  Student conferences wit the council offer students peer support while determining appropriate consequences. All student conference information is kept confidential.  The Coordinating Council elects an Executive Board each fall and this consists of a Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary and Parliamentarian.  The Executive Board meets before each Coordinating Council meeting to create the agenda. The Coordinating Council meets the second Wednesday of each month at 4:00 p.m. unless notified otherwise. Members are allowed to serve more than one year
