The members of the current committee who are leaving include: the Chair, Vice Chair, Darkroom Officer, and Ordinary Member. However all positions are up for election. Any member of the society can stand for Election!
If you want to help out in some way which is not covered by the current positions, just ask.
Running events weekly can be a lot of work. But it doesn’t mean you have to continue this in the future. What you can do depends on how many people run for the committee and what you are interested in. I would advise you all to run – firstly, it’s great fun – secondly, it looks good on your C.V. – and thirdly if you are worried about the work-society balance, your work always comes first. You will not be asked to do anything you are not capable of and there will always be other to help.
Remember: No committee members mean no photoSoc!
