RESOURCES

STUDENT LIAISON PROGRAM

At the beginning of the school year, student groups are assigned an intern who will serve as their Foundation liaison. Student groups should use their liaisons for help with everything from creating an invitation for an event to postering for it.


COMPUTERS

We encourage student groups to use the Harvard Foundation's computers to create posters, invitations, programs, mailing lists, letters and other documents. No approval is necessary. However, please save your documents in your group's sub-folder under the main folder "groups" on the Foundation server, not on the desktop!! If your organization hasn't created a folder yet, or you need help of any kind, we encourage you to ask an intern for assistance.


PHOTOCOPIES

The Harvard Foundation photocopier may only be used by student group members whose groups are active members of the Student Advisory Committee and/or recipients of a Foundation Grant. Each group is allowed to make a maximum of 50 copies per week, per event. Before making copies, please fill out the information requested in the photocopy log binder. After the copies have been made, please place a copy of the poster or document in the binder. NEW! We have bright colored paper available for copies!


TELEPHONES

Foundation telephones may be used to make event-related calls. If such a call is long-distance, it must first be approved by the Harvard Foundation Staff Assistant. Please log all calls in the Phone/Fax Logbook.


FAX MACHINE

The Foundation's fax machine may also be used for event-related faxes. Please obtain the approval of the Harvard Foundation Staff Assistant before sending faxes to off-campus numbers. Please log all faxes in the Phone/Fax Logbook.




FOUNDATION LETTERHEAD AND INSIGNIA

You must always obtain approval from the Staff Assistant before using Foundation letterhead for your organization's correspondence or using the Foundation insignia on a poster, invitations, etc.


STUDENT GROUP CONTACT INFORMATION

The Harvard Foundation keeps an update list of student organizations. If you have not notified us about changes in office, or if you are beginning a new organization, please contact us as soon as possible. The telephone number and address of the foundation are displayed at the bottom of this page.


KARAOKE MACHINE/SOUND SYSTEM

The Harvard Foundation has purchased a karaoke machine/sound system to reduce the costs of putting on SAC-related events that would otherwise require renting a sound system. Please contact the foundation at least a week prior to borrowing the system, as more than one group may need it.


ELECTRIC GRIDDLES (FRYING PANS)

We have three large electric griddles available for students groups that want to use them for cooking events.
