We are actively seeking committee members from a range of career stages across academia, industry, and government, who have interest in science communication, networking, mentoring, and the promotion of early career scientists.

Newsletter Committee
The SAS Newsletter Committee is looking for two or three new volunteers to help assist with the Newsletter. The responsibilities for this position on average take 1-3 hours per month. The newsletter is SAS' official means of communicating with members, delivering important society news every month. This could include upcoming conferences and presentations, section activities, awards, career and professional development information, etc. If you have a slant towards journalism or creative writing, you are highly encouraged to inquire about the committee; however, anyone with enthusiasm and a willingness to contribute to the Newsletter are welcome!Social Media Committee
The Social Media committee is in charge of our social media – LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, etc. – and helps create interest in SAS through scheduling posts about all things SAS and spectroscopy related. Typical investment is 2-4 hours per month and requires a little creativity. Serving on this committee is a great way to learn more about social media marketing and improve your skills in the area.
