ICFP'21 FIRST CALL FOR STUDENT VOLUNTEERS
=========================================

ICFP provides a forum for researchers and developers to hear about the
latest work on the design, implementations, principles, and uses of
functional programming. The conference covers the entire spectrum of work,
from practice to theory, including its peripheries. In order to smoothly
run the conference, associated workshops, and tutorials, we need student
volunteers to help out on the practical aspect of the organization. All the
events associated with ICFP'21 will take place **virtually** from Sun 22 -
Fri 27 August 2021.

Even though the event will be virtual, we will more than ever need the help
of student volunteers to make sure everything runs smoothly.
In return, as an ICFP 2021 student volunteer, you will get more visibility
and be able to interact closely with researchers, academics and
practitioners from various disciplines and discuss with other students from
around the world.

While the exact structure of the conference is still being discussed, job
assignments for student volunteers will probably include:
1- Assisting with technical sessions, workshops, tutorials, Q&A sessions,
social activities, and panels.
2- Helping to get authors' videos prepped and ready for broadcast.
3- Managing channels on a virtual event platform.
