Student volunteers are needed to assist with the CHI+GI 1987 conference to be held April 5-9 in Toronto, Canada. CHI+GI 1987 will integrate the annual CHI conference (sponsored by the ACM Special Interest group on Computers and Human Interaction, SIGCHI), and the annual Graphics Interface (GI) conference, sponsored by the CIPS Canadian Man-Computer Communications Society (CMCCS). This special combined conference offers an opportunity for those involved in human-computer interaction and computer graphics to learn about each other's fields and discuss issues of mutual concern. Student volunteers are needed to help run the conference. Responsibilities will include monitoring and running audio-visual equipment for sessions and tutorials, assisting in registration of attendees, helping with live demonstrations, and performing other reasonable tasks. Student volunteers will be expected to work 16 hours over a six day period in exchange for free conference admission, free conference proceedings, free admission to a tutorial of your choice, and other benefits. Students who want a second tutorial will work a total of 24 hours. Extra compensation will be considered for those students who work more than 24 hours. We will also provide special student housing information, and will throw a party to show our appreciation of your efforts.
