Membership

Responsibility

Membership to the WG involves a commitment through attendance and participation. We ask that each member be present at the full Working Group meetings which are held once a month during the academic year--missing no more than three. Additionally, participation on one of the task groups or committees is expected. These groups meet as needed and participation levels vary. Non-participation, non-communication and/or non-attendance are grounds for membership expiration.

Privileges

Becoming a member of the WG has several advantages which include recognition and further involvement within the MIT community.

  • Appointment by MIT President, with acknowledgement letter sent to member's supervisor
  • Opportunities to effect change: to voice concerns and issues and offer solutions
  • Opportunities to further develop skills and test new areas
  • Build one's knowledge of Institute policies and practices
  • MIT Resource personnel available to WG members
  • Networking opportunities that range from Facilities to the President's Office
  • Fellowship and a sense of community

Current Members

The Working Group is composed of MIT support staff and administrative staff from many different departments. Our goal is to have at least one representative from each department, so if you do not see yours represented below please contact us. You should also feel free to speak with current members to answer specific questions. Also feel free to come to one of our meetings to gather further information.
