Hey Class of 2012! Has it sunk in with anyone that in just a few months we start medical school??
I've been recruited to head up our class' noteservice and I need lots of help! I copied some of the descriptions from the last few years' class so please let me know if you are interested in helping out!! To start out we really need someone to be Head Runner and Treasurer…from there we'll have to have lots of people to take notes. Everyone I've talked to seems to really like the service and they all recommend us getting it started early so we can have it up and running from day one! PM me if you are interested!
See you in a few months!

Class of 2011: "We upload the notes from the server and email them to office max. Office max then prints them off and delivers them to the school. Runner, ie: student willing to place the notes in the lockers, does so each afternoon/morning (all lockers have a mail slot). Then each morning students are able to pick their notes out of their lockers and go to class. One girl is in charge of getting the notes to office max. The Head Scribe is in charge of the scribes: students who take notes during class for people who missed the lecture or just want the extra notes. And I, the Treasurer, am in charge of the money, which means I deposit all of the checks and make sure we don't go into the red. Generally, the students in charge, the scribes and the runners get the service for FREE (typically $150 per semester cost).
This is a great service especially for those of you in LDP. It will cost you less to have the notes printed through note service than to print them yourself at home.
It's a student run thing where you can get printed class notes (the prof's power point) and notes on what was said in classes (called scribe notes). In order for you guys to have this service, you need to start one up. Three students are needed to run it:
-Head scribe - in charge of the scribes who take notes in class, have to make schedules, and send out the scribe notes
-Head runner - in charge of the runners who deliver the printed class notes and getting the notes for class printed (uploading them to a server and they are then delivered)
-Treasurer - in charge of paying the bills for the printed notes and keeping the noteservice out of the red
Once we get those three people, other students will be solicited to be runners and scribes. The bonus of being one of these three positions is that you can put it on your curriculum vitae and you get free noteservice.
If you are interested in being any of the above three positions or a scribe or runner (they get free noteservice too) then drop me a PM stating what you are interested in. LDP students are the ones who typically participate in the noteservice, but any pathway could actually be the treasurer or head scribe."
