Volunteer for Arts
Thank you for your interest in volunteering! We recruit volunteers each term (fall, winter, spring) to assist with different programs and events within the Faculty of Arts.
Volunteer ambassadors are an extremely valuable resource for our faculty and its goals and overall mission. We wouldn't be able to do it without you!

Outreach activities
The following is a list of the outreach opportunities that we recruit volunteers for:
We want to hear what you have to say! Provide feedback on publications, web pages, academics, new initiatives, etc. Help us do a better job in recruiting and servicing current students. Communication through email and/or group discussions as required.
Electronic Outreach Initiatives - Fall, Winter, Spring
Want to tell your Arts story to prospective students? We're looking for enthusiastic students to share their experiences through online blogs, videos, and profiles. If you have a cool story to share, we want to hear it, and so do our future students.
High School Outreach - Fall & Winter term
Heading back home for a visit? Why not return to your old high school, meet up with your former teachers, and share your Arts experience with current high school students. We'll assist you in proving all the materials you'll need, but you get to tell your story.
Early Offer Calling Campaign - March, April & May
The Dean of Arts asks volunteers to help welcome newly admitted students by calling to congratulate them of their early offer and to answer any questions they might have.
