The following is the short bio I submitted to the JEC when I completed my petition for candidacy. I thought you might want to take a look:
Calder is excited to be running for Executive Chair of Program Board, GW’s largest event-planning organization. As PB’s current IT Chair, Calder uses the PB website and email listserv to communicate between the PB Executive Board and its student body. His communication and administrative experience will make him a strong, capable, and visionary leader.
A sophomore pursuing a B.A. in Dramatic Literature, Calder is a member of the University Honors Program and an active member of the GW community. He plays drum set for FPP musicals, coordinates the Washington Theatre Scholars Living & Learning Cohort, and contributes to the GW English Blog as the department’s Communications Liaison. Calder also helps faculty and staff as a staff assistant with the CCAS Office of Technology Services. This summer, Calder will return for his second year as a counselor at Camp Kesem GW, a free camp for local children of cancer patients.
Calder likes exploring DC’s many museums, watching film noir and action movies, and mishearing the lyrics to popular songs. You can learn more about Calder at www.calderstembel.com.
