(Terms of service are for two years.) DEIC consists of 42 members, the majority of which are teachers.
Categories of DEIC service that will have an opening are:
Serving on DEIC requires attendance at a monthly one-hour meeting on the fourth Wednesday of each month at 4:00 in the Shoemaker Center auditorium. You may be asked to serve on an additional ad-hoc committee as the need arises.

Applications to serve on DEIC are due no later than September 10. If you are interested, I would encourage you to go ahead and complete the application at this time.
