Hey FreeSkool Fans,

The Hamilton FreeSkool is seeking two new faces for the organizing
committee. If you have facebook, post the link to this callout
(http://hamiltonfreeskool.org/call-out-for-freeskool-organizers/) on there.
Also, a fancy poster is attached, and if you like, you can print it up and
stick it around town. FreeSkool needs everyone's help to get the word out!

Organizing is a chance to help keep Freeskool fresh and fancy-free! We
rotate organizers every two semesters of Freeskool, in order to increase
diversity, help folks build new skills and encourage Freeskool to grow in
new ways.

If selected, you would be joining two organizers from last semester to take
on some of the tasks of organizing freeskool.

Roles of a Freeskool organizer;

- respond to the needs (space, promotion, financial, etc…) of freeskool
class facilitators

- maintain communication between organizers and facilitators

- create/maintain main freeskool email list, check freeskool email

- liason between OPIRG and facilitators/freeskool

- update events listings, calendars, website and posters

- organize the more random freeskool events – potlucks, one-off classes and
lectures, field trips…

- use various means to promote freeskool – media, website, flyers, posters,
announcements, etc…

- help coordinate new classes and prepare new facilitators

- fundraise, secure funding/maintain freeskool finances

- anything else you can imagine to ensure the continued awesomeness of
freeskool

If you want a larger role in the freeskool family; if you want to build your
activist/organizing/facilitation skills; and if you agree with, and/or can
work with, the manifesto and values of freeskool, then maybe being an
organizer is for you!

We will be collecting applications until the middle of April, and will meet
with prospective organizers over the month.  There will be a facilitated
transition process, so that by the beginning of the summer freeskool term,
you’ll be ready to rock it out and keep freeskool super and special.

Email us at hamiltonfreeskool at gmail.com to grab an application form.

"If modern industrial education—and more broadly industrial
civilization—requires "the subsumption of the individual," that is, the
conversion of vibrant human beings into "automata," i.e., into a pliant
workforce, then the most revolutionary thing we can do is follow our hearts,
to manifest who we really are."
