General Body members attend biweekly meetings with the Executive Board to plan and organize Big Red THON. Active membership is based on a simplified, easy-to-navigate and non-overwhelming point system. Being a General Body member is a great way to get more involved in THON, serve on committees, and have a bigger say in activities both leading up to and during the event! Many of our Executive Board members serve on the G-body first to learn more about the positions and club itself!
We encourage anyone interested to come to General Body meetings! To be added to our email announcements listserv, send us a message using our contact form, reach [email protected], or apply on our application tab.
Our G-Body committees are structured to provide leadership opportunities to our members. Each committee offers unique leadership experience to individuals, and to add more, each committee will have two co-committee heads to help orchestrate relations in their committee.
