TiTe's officer positions

What is an officer?

The officers of the Tampereen TietoTeekkarikilta, known as toimarit, work together with TiTe’s board. The difference compared to the actual board is not significant, nor is it very noticeable in day-to-day activities. At the general meeting, the guild elects a chair candidate, who in turn proposes the guild’s board. After the turn of the year, this board selects the officials based on applications and interviews.

There are many different types of official positions, and they are not set in stone — you can even propose a new position! Being an officer is an easy way to experience how the guild operates behind the scenes and to contribute your part. The workload varies slightly between roles, and some positions can also be combined. There are no prerequisites — enthusiasm is a bonus — but attitude is what matters most!

Host's / Hostess' helper

The duties of the Host/Hostess include taking care of the arrangements for the guild’s sauna evenings. Other responsibilities include, for example, organizing the guild’s summer gathering and handling the coffee and doughnut service at general meetings. For sauna evenings, the Teekkarisauna Mörrimöykky is usually reserved. Once on site, the host/hostess ensures that the sauna and hot tub are warm and that there is enough refreshments for everyone. TiTe has several sauna events each year, and the host’s workload is concentrated around these events and the evenings may be long.

Alumni officer

The Alumni officer plans and carries out activities for TiTe members who have already graduated or are about to graduate, together with TiTe’s alumni association, TiTTu. So you don’t have to handle alumni matters alone anymore but do it as a team! The Alumni officer serves as a bridge between the guild’s students and its alumni. The most important thing in this role is an interest in the alumni community and its activities!

The year includes plenty of other activities as well, such as info sessions, sitsit, XQ trips, checkpoint crawls, sports trials, and the fuksi oath.

Another part of the Freshman Coordinator’s role is being part of the Fuksi Council (Fuksineuvosto), which consists of the fuksi captains from all guilds, and also being part of Hovi, which includes the fuksi captains and the tutor coordinators from the city centre campus. The Fuksi Council also holds meetings where the largest freshman events on campus are planned, such as the Shrovetide Festival (Laskiaisrieha), the City Tour (Kiertoajelu), Fuksisitsit, and Fuksikyykkä.

There is plenty to do outside these events as well, such as advising fuksis and stamping fuksipasses. Events never have to be organized alone, it is highly encouraged and lots of fun to come up with activities together with other guilds and student associations!
