Description of Executive Positions
ALASC elects individuals for the following positions every academic year. Our goal is to have one second-year student and one first-year student in every role, so that each each position will have an experienced veteran as well as a fresh candidate. Exceptions can and will be made. All duties and responsibilities listed here are just a very loose idea; all officers and group members will be asked to perform assorted tasks to complete projects. The ALASC works on a non- hierarchical base, with all votes counting as equal except in highly unusual situations.
