1C <br /> Page 2 of 2 Andrew Wood <br /> Chapel Hill/Orange County Visitors Bureau <br /> I have served on several committees that function to plan events and <br /> policies that best serve the UNC-CH student body. My experiences in <br /> strategizing and planning within UNC s student government as well as my <br /> previous involvement with the State s Board of Governors and General <br /> Administration have prepared me to work in a professional political <br /> atmosphere. As a student pursuing a degree in Journalism and Mass <br /> Communications with a specialization in Graphic Design, I would be able to <br /> contribute both a fresh students perspective in regards to tourism and <br /> marketing campaigns and could contribute my talents in any way possible. I <br /> am passionate about the town of Chapel Hill - not just the University- and <br /> my involvement and connections with the community would contribute <br /> positively to the makeup of the visitor s bureau. <br /> Chapel Hill Parks and Recreation Commission <br /> As a lover of the outdoors and fun weekend activities, I understand the true <br /> value of parks to a community. Not only does my passion for parks extend <br /> to the physical locations, but I value the worth that they bring by offering a <br /> space to bring neighbors from the same community together in communal <br /> recreation and activities. My experiences serving on UNC-CH s student <br /> government and sitting on advisory boards for the UNC System s policy- <br /> making functions, I am prepared to serve in a professional political <br /> atmosphere for deciding on policy issues and funding allocations. By <br /> applying for this position, I hope to provide a connection between the <br /> University and town s park and recreation services as well as provide a <br /> fresh student perspective on any advisory committees. <br /> Community Activities/Organizational Memberships: <br /> II m heavily involved in UNC-CH s student government. I have served the UNC system <br /> and community by advising members of Tom Ross administration on various policy <br /> issues. I also serve as a chair for the Multicultural Affairs and Diversity Outreach <br /> committee of student government. In addition, I sit on a committee that advises UNC-CH <br /> s provost on LGBTQ issues and allocates funding to University departments and <br /> organizations. I attend classes at UNC-CH as a full time student and am a dues-paying <br /> member of the Young Democrats. I serve as an executive assistant to the Senior Adviser <br /> within Student Government and sit on the University s Diversity Awards Committee. <br /> Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: <br /> Other Comments: <br /> STAFF COMMENTS: Originally (10/01-02/2013) applied for Chapel Hi III Library Board of <br /> Trustees, Chapel Hill/Orange County visitors Bureau, and Chapel Hill Parks and <br /> Recreation Commission, and Animal Services Advisory Board.
