Membership
The OAL keeps track of members and makes them feel loved. Make sure members are fulfilling their requirements. Read the constitution so you know what the requirements are! Arrange meetings with each designer and estimate the number of shop hours necessary for the production. Keep track of hours and make sure everyone is doing what they are supposed to. If not, let the officers know.
Alumni Relations
Alumni are sources of money and wisdom. They like to be contacted every once in a while. Keep the alums up to date on what's going on by sending an alumni mailing each term. During the run of a show, an alumni brunch should be planned and hosted in space. The Alumni Association is very strong at MIT. They have clubs all over the country. Email these clubs to see if they would donate money to our group or would like us to perform. Working in the Boston metro area first is the best thing. Also, make sure all alumni know that donations to MIT can be directed to the Ensemble - especially target seniors who are donating for the first time!
Shakespeare Awareness
We think everyone knows who Shakespeare is. But MIT is not known for its liberal arts program. The more they remember that Shakespeare exists, the more, we think anyway, they want to join us. Give their soul to the old man. Random pictures of Shakespeare would be cool. Have fun with it.
