University Advancement Ambassador

In the government an ambassador is a representative of a nation who promotes good relations between countries and represents his or her own country well. 

At Taylor a Student Ambassador operates in a similar way.  Whether mingling with donors at the President's dinner, talking to an alumnus over the telephone as part of the student calling team, or simply being a smiling greeter at an event, a Student Ambassador gives a face to Taylor. 

The main responsibility of a Student Ambassador is to be a good representative of the University and consequently Jesus Christ.

  • Attend special Taylor events such as the President's dinner, Homecoming and other alumni functions as a representative of the student body.
  • Work closely with the student calling team throughout the calling year and actively participate in the alumni calling program about 6 hours each week.
  • Be available to attend other functions or meetings where a student representative is needed.
  • Office projects involved with University Advancement.
  • Other special projects as defined by the Director of the Taylor Fund.
