Applications are being accepted for the Southwest Baptist University Ambassador Program until Friday, May 16.
Application forms are available in the Career Services office.
The Ambassador program was established in fall 1994 to represent the President and First Lady as they contribute to the SBU community.
The group of ambassadors assists President and Mrs. Taylor with University events such as Homecoming, graduations, receptions, banquets, convocations and other SBU functions.
"One of the benefits to being an Ambassador is that I am required to positively interact with complete strangers at University functions," said [year] Shannon Kirkpatrick. "As a future business professional, this current role will enable me to interact with clients in a professional, yet caring manner."
Student applications and reference letters from SBU faculty and staff will be reviewed before students will receive interviews with the Ambassador Sponsor, Judy Taylor.
Twelve students will be chosen as ambassadors.
They will be chosen on the basis of academic excellence, leadership skills, character, communication skills and knowledge of the University campus as a whole.
"It has been an honor to serve the University through the Ambassador's program," said Kirkpatrick. "I think every Ambassador, past or present would agree that it is a privilege to assist Dr. and Mrs. Taylor at University events, all the while representing current SBU students."
For more information, contact Judy Dutile, director of career services and international studies, in the Career Services office in Mabee Chapel by email at jdutile@sbuniv.edu or by phone at 328-1689.
