Responsibilities
- Be knowledgeable and conversant about ILR. Be informed about current programs, initiatives and priorities. (Admissions, academics, development, outreach, etc.)

Time Commitment

- The ILRAA dues campaign requires a few hours (2-5) each fall for personal solicitations to non-members.
- Event attendance can be as little as a few hours; it can also be significant, depending on your personal preference and interest. (There are numerous events, especially in the metro NYC and our other more active areas.)
- Groat Alpern is an annual 3-hour dinner event scheduled in March or April.
- Other leadership/committee responsibilities can take from 5-20 hours per year.
