Valentine's Day e-mail

In honor of V-Day, Roosevelt is pleased to announce the opening of our newest policy center, The Center on Women Issues. Special thanks to Hallie Fox, the new center’s Director. We will kick-off the center with a booth outside the Vagina Monologues performance on Saturday evening (7:00 & 9:30 PM), February 18th in McCullough Social Space.

The Center will meet regularly on Sunday evenings at 7:30 in Stewart 2nd Floor Lounge. Please email Hallie (hfox@middlebury.edu) with questions. Hope to see you there!Here are a few updates:
TUESDAY, February 21st, in Hepburn Lounge at 8:00 PM is the Roosevelt Institution’s Spring Semester Kickoff Event. Hear from President Jessie Singleton, Policy Coordinator Alex Garlick, Center Directors and others on topics such as Why Roosevelt?, What, exactly, college students have to offer the world of public policy, and plans for Spring Semester, including policy writing workshops, faculty outreach events, and meetings with members of Vermont State Legislature. If you’ve wanted to become involved with Roosevelt and weren’t able to make it in the fall, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE!
Casual. Refreshments will be served.

The NEW Center meeting schedule will be released in a few days, so look forward to that.
Thursday, February 16th is the Campus Activities Fair- please let Alex Garlick (agarlick@middlebury.edu) know if you are interested in helping with the table.IMPORTANT: if you are interested in applying for an editorial position with the Roosevelt Review, Roosevelt Institution’s national policy publication, you may apply via the website (http://rooseveltinstitution.org/joinreview).

We encourage you all to consider applying for a position with the Review team. These positions are time consuming, but are mostly summer obligations and the experience you will gain from this work is priceless. Jessie, Alex, and your center leaders would be happy to write a letter of recommendation on your behalf.

You may contact either Jack Lysohir (jlysohir@middlebury.edu) or Jessie Singleton(jsinglet@middlebury.edu) with questions. Get excited about Spring Semester. And please pencil next Tuesday into your calendars- we will welcome new members and reconnect with the old. There is no better time to become involved with a policy center than NOW!
