you like to travel for free? Do you want to stay in touch with the
technical activities in your field? If so, joining the IEEE Nuclear
and Plasma Sciences Society (NPSS) Conference Booth Council may
be just the thing for you!
The NPSS operates a Membership Booth at each of the approximately
seven conferences that NPSS sponsors each year. Volunteers at this
booth promote IEEE and NPSS membership, answer IEEE-related questions,
and generally act as the interface between NPSS members and their
Society. The NPSS is now forming a Conference Booth Council and
is actively looking for volunteers to serve on this Council. The
main responsibility of the Council Members is to travel to conferences
and man the booth at the conference (mostly during the conference
coffee breaks). There are also some lesser, but important duties,
such as setting up and tearing down the booth, and doing some initial
processing of and tracking membership applications. Council members
will work closely with the NPSS Membership Chair both to receive
training in membership procedures and to develop new strategies
and practices. All conference fees and reasonable travel expenses
will be paid by NPSS.
Because of the large number of conferences that NPSS sponsors, more
than one candidate is sought. Conference dates are know several
years in advance for planning purposes. Does this sound interesting
to you? If so, please contact Jane Lehr at Sandia National Laboratories,
