Chapter Alumni Risk Management Advisor (CARMA)
Role Description
Thank you for taking on this commitment! The expectation is that the Alumni Risk Management Advisor will be a steady resource for her/his chapter and the undergraduate Risk Manager in particular. The program is designed to provide you direct access and knowledge of MIT resources, as well as regular opportunities to meet & discuss issues with MIT staff from the Division of Student Life, the Medical Department, and Campus Police.
Each Advisor is asked to do the following:
1. Attend Discussion Group sessions at MIT for all Alumni Risk
Advisors.
There are usually two per term. And these are posted on the
CARMA home page. The expectation is that you attend at least one, if
not both, of these informative sessions.
If you would like to suggest a topic, please send
this form to
any MIT staff member listed at the end.
2. Attend, if possible, a social host/server training
These are held several times during the year and the Dean Danny
Trujillo will advise of dates/times. Attendance at the social
host/server training program not only informs the Advisor about
today's responsibilities but also allows alumni to help tailor the
program.
3. Schedule individual meetings as desired with MIT staff
Please feel free contact any of the people below. If you'd like help
making connection with MIT Staff person, please look them up on-line
or get in touch with Bob Ferrara or Marlena Martinez and they will
help. In particular, fraternity advisors are encouraged to meet with
Dean Danny Trujillo
4. Attend one meeting with the chapter Alumni Corporation and/or
Advisory Board
Each Advisor should stay connected to the alumni leadership of the
chapter also, so we ask that there at least be an annual check in with
the Corporation or Advisory Board.
5. And seek and offer guidance from MIT staff & fellow Alumni Risk
Management Advisors
Advisors should not be bashful about asking for help or thinking
partners with MIT staff or peers. A special e-mail list has been set
up for the group, called carma-advisors (at) mit.edu. The complete list
of Advisors is listed here.
6. At the completion of each term, a brief report is
requested.
Here is the template both
in WORD
and PDF formats.
Please return them to rferrara (at) mit.edu.
Each Advisor who commits to completing this program will be provided an advance of $125 per term to fund their expenses associated with the program (such as dinners with the chapter risk manager). Funding for the following year is contingent on completion of the report noted in item 6 above. To become involved, please contact any of the people listed below.
