The Monash University Activities Advisory committee was established y in order to organize and promote major social events. It was established in the spirit of encouraging active participation in organizing and taking part in social events.
This year, Smile’s activities committee promises six major events.
- Two Orientation bashes which will most probably be overnight events
- One street carnival
- Monash Olympics/M’Olympic games which will be an inter school sports carnival in which we will try to involve all sports clubs so that perhaps each sports club will manage their respective event, for eg basketball will manage the basket ball event.
- We also plan on a great way to celebrate post exams with an After Exam Party!
- The Monash Annual Ball will also be organized but we propose to have an open survey so that students get a chance to choose the theme.
So why should you vote for Smile? Because we are experienced and can throw not just good events, but great events! We have nearly 15 members who have helped in activities and have been directly involved in various activities subcommittees. In addition to that, our candidate for vice president, Joyce, is the current activities chairperson and she will actively guide the incoming activities chairperson.
Furthermore, my partner and I are also experienced at handling events. Wei Kwong, with whom I share this position, has been actively involved in 5 events such as 1 orientation bash, the M’Olympic games, a Welcome Back Party, the Street Carnival and a Monash Ball.
In addition, we also intent to submit an event account to the MUSA treasurer who will then make it available to the students so that you will know what we are doing with your money.
We plan on having a post mortem for every event so that constructive feedback can be obtained. The activities advisory committee plans to have open recruitment for events, so that students outside of MUSA will have an opportunity to help organize events! This will be done as per the constitution that states that one of our duties is to provide avenues for students to participate in events.
Vote for S.M.I.L.E and we will deliver!
