The Role

This is a dynamic summer position that requires the Activities Leader to create, produce, and lead fun activities and excursions for our students. These activities could include leading and organizing intramural sports, museum outings, beach trips, Red Sox games, on-campus movie nights, Harvard University tours, board game nights, and more. Candidates need to possess positive energy and a strong aptitude for creativity.
