Each MASA Campus Representative will be responsible for recruiting a pre-determined number of students for long-term Israel programs including study-abroad and post-college opportunities.

MASA Campus Representatives will be paid $1,000 stipend per semester and will receive a $1,000 programming budget per semester. There will also be a mandatory MASA Campus Representative Internship training in August 2008 prior to the start of the academic year.

The specific number of students will be decided upon in the first few weeks of the fall semester. Programming Each Campus Representative will receive $1,000 budget to be used towards programming per semester. Programming is intended to raise interest in long-term Israel programs and generate opportunities for recruitment.

This process will be repeated at the end of the second semester. Internship Shabbatonim Each Campus Representative are required to attend two MASA Shabbatonim.
