Please volunteer if available! 8:00am: Meet in the lobby of Colden. All students should put on name tags and then report to the appropriate captains. Help might be needed setting up the tables, signs, and folders. Look for an email update regarding how much gets accomplished the day before the event and what, if anything, still needs attention. If you are not assigned to a job at this time, please help set up items if necessary. Help maintain the food tables (until guests are seated in the Ballroom) by refilling items (extra water bottles are under the table) and/or moving them up to the front of the food tables. Also, throw out any garbage left on tables. Check email for possible change of start time. 8:30am-9:30am: GREET our guests and direct them to the Registration Desks. There are separate tables for teachers/professors (on the right as you enter) and students (across from the entrance). 9:10am: All TIME students in the vicinity should start directing people in the lobby to be seated in Colden Auditorium. Ushers must make sure all seats are filled starting with the front rows, front sections only. Make sure students do not skip seats as the room. Speak up and tell students where they should sit. 9:30am: Program starts. Dr. Artzt makes opening comments, followed by the QC President, the CUNY Chancellor, and then the Keynote. All TIME 2000 students without an assignment at this time should be seated quietly in the auditorium, behind the guests. If you need to report to your next job before 11am, sit on an aisle so that you may leave quietly. Most importantly, TIME 2000 students should be good role models for the high school students. Please do not talk during the presentations. Remember to allow the high school guests to answer the questions posed by the presenters. 10:45am (shortly before the keynote speaker finishes his presentation): * Presenter Escorts Meet the presenter you will escort to a classroom in the Colden lobby at the time requested. This could actually be earlier than 10:45am. Check with Nicole for the exact time at the presenter check-in table as per the instructions in the Excel file. Sit in the back, on an aisle, so you can leave discreetly. * EQUIPMENT MONITORS: If "Equipment" is your job assignment, you should arrive at the classroom at the time requested by the presenter. Follow instructions for presenter escort, above and in the excel file. The presenter may be using PowerPoint and a projector. Rooms in Powdermaker Hall have cabinets or closets with all the equipment. Pick up keys for the cabinets from Lori in PH 002 before you go to the assigned classroom. Help the presenter turn on the computer and log-in with your QC info. If there are technical problems in a room in PH, contact Amanda or Reinald or get help from Media Services in PH 136. If all else fails, find Alyssa. * If you are asked to bring graphing calculators to a presenter, please be responsible for distributing and then collecting all the calculators BEFORE the end of each session. Pick up the calculators from Lori, PH 002 before the start of session I. After session II, please return the calculators to Lori at 1:15pm, in PH002. Then, report to SU, 4th floor, and help with lunch. 10:50am: Escorts meet the captains in the Colden Lobby. BEFORE the keynote speaker finishes speaking, you will line up on the grass to the left as you exit Colden as directed by the captains with your room signs held high. Follow instructions listed on job descriptions. Room signs should be picked up from the teacher registration desk before 9:30am or from the captains when you meet now. Follow instructions of captains so that rooms are listed in numerical order and escorts are well-spaced around the grassy area. Expect 25-28 students per classroom. Leave Colden for your session I room as instructed by the dismissal captains. 11:15am-12:05pm: Session I * Escorts will bring students to assigned classrooms. All TIME 2000 students in a classroom should offer their assistance to the presenter. Also assist with the distribution and collection of calculators and other materials. Help ensure that all equipment is collected from students before students leave the classroom. * At the end of the first workshop, presenters will stay in the same room and students will move to a different room for the second session. Students in the same room for Session I will move together, as a group, to a room for Session II. When the first workshop ends, announce to the students in the room to follow you to the next workshop. Know your assigned room numbers! 12:15pm-1:05pm: Session II Escorts should lead the guests to the second room. The room number is listed in the attached Excel file and can also be found in the high school students' folders. There are no room signs for Session II as your group of students is already with you. Approach students who look lost. Offer assistance to the presenter. Presenter Escorts remain in the same room for both sessions. ***** AT THE END OF SESSION II, BEFORE LEAVING THE CLASSROOM, ASK STUDENTS TO COMPLETE THE YELLOW EVALUATION FORMS THAT ARE IN THEIR FOLDERS. A COMPLETED EVALUATION FORM IS A LUNCH TICKET. STUDENTS WILL TRADE THE TICKET FOR A LUNCH BOX, SO DO NOT COLLECT THEM. ***** 1:15pm-2:15pm: LUNCH and Q&A Session, SU, 4th floor, Ballroom LUNCH: Students exchange yellow completed evaluation forms for one boxed lunch. One lunch per person. Please help distribute lunches as soon as you get to the ballroom. All guests, teachers and students, must hand you a completed yellow evaluation form as a lunch ticket. Presenters and TIME 2000 students are the only people who do not need to submit yellow lunch tickets. TIME 2000 students may take lunch after the guests are served. TIME 2000 students should be positioned in front of the lunch tables, standing between the guests and the food. Guests will hand you completed tickets and then you will hand them the lunches of their choice. Q&A Session with TIME 2000 Student Panel: All TIME 2000 Students: Please help with crowd and noise control. It was difficult to hear the panel discussion in previous years. Please help keep the crowd quiet as needed. TIME 2000 students should spread out around the room. Help quiet the crowd. Be positive role models by refraining from talking during the panel session. 2:30pm: TIME to celebrate! TIME 2000 Party in the SU Ballroom to thank you for your assistance! Make your own sundaes! HELP: Last minute changes, questions, or problems during the conference, call: Christian: 347-459-7560 Equipment problems: Amanda: 516-317-7831 Reinald: 347-806-7573 If you cannot reach us, Lori is available in the TIME 2000 office, 718-997-5377. Ask her to call me on your behalf. If you have an EMERGENCY and will be absent at the last minute, you must contact us! Make sure you speak to one of us; do not only leave a message or send an email on Friday. As you see, you all play a role and we are counting on your contribution and we must know that your positions need replacements before the guests arrive.

The goal of the fund is to help students remain in school without interruption and successfully complete their degree. Each applicant is required to submit a statement of need explaining his or her situation and how he or she will use the funds, if awarded. It should be noted that decisions on grant awards are made on a case-by-case basis. If awarded, this money does not need to be repaid. The grant may be considered taxable income for income tax purposes, so you may need to self-report. The following are some examples of eligible emergency situations and expenses that the fund will consider: * overdue utilities bills and shut-off notices * rent in arrears, at risk for eviction * housing assistance for homelessness * medical and dental bills for uninsured necessary procedures * destruction of living quarters due to fire or natural disaster * documented theft of computers, books, clothing, or other essential belongings * assistance in paying for food, transportation, and basic necessities due to recent unemployment or recent financial difficulty * automobile expenses (if a student's car breaks down and is their only means of transportation) * child care for legal dependents * travel home for illness or death in the immediate family * victims of domestic violence. The grant is NOT intended to cover: * previous college tuition debt/expenses * current full or partial tuition and fees * personal debts * legal representation/attorney fees in a criminal proceeding, including child support * legal representation/attorney fees for CUNY disciplinary proceedings. The Carrol and Milton Petrie Student Emergency Grant Fund is not a substitute for financial aid. Students who are seeking funds are required to utilize all available financial aid resources before being awarded the Petrie Grant. Financial aid status will be verified for all applications. To determine eligibility, students may submit the online application: https://forms.gle/X9hzC9RSWgaZmN4L9<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001cCpSgxh5p0pkqli8lNO9eF9P1y2TG_oiBOWYDbMO9YVt…> For more information on the program, contact the Office of Student Affairs via email (vpsa(a)qc.cuny.edu<mailto:vpsa@qc.cuny.edu>) or call 718-997-5500.
