Org Charts
Since its founding in 2005, Undergraduate Students for Publishing has grown into a multi-faceted organization. The club as a whole is often affectionately called “Pub Club,” and is run by an executive board which oversees general meetings, the book projects, the website, and the literary magazine. All club events, workshops, and the book launch are open to the entire Emerson College community.
Executive Board
Members apply for positions and once selected, have the opportunity to gain experience and move up un the organization if they choose. While there are specific positions, this board oversees everything and often takes on extra tasks, committing several hours per week to running this club. The Co-Presidents are the two positions with the most responsibilities.
Wilde Press Staff
In 2009, Wilde Press was created to oversee a new aspect of the club, the book project. Soon, this was increased to two book projects a semester. This section of the club strives to mimic a publishing house on a smaller scale. Publisher positions are held by senior members of staff, usually the club’s co-presidents. Heads and assistant positions are applied for, but teams are open to anyone at Emerson College.
