New Coordinator: Sam Acosta
The Civic Media Center is proud to welcome our newest Coordinator Samantha Acosta. Sam will be working with Sylvia Arnold once current Coordinator Jen Bame steps down. Sam, a previous CMC volunteer, is a first-year student at the University of Florida where she is studying Linguistics. In high school, Sam was President of her Amnesty International School Chapter and Vice President of the Young Democrats Chapter. She has helped to organize benefits for organizations such as Books Not Bombs and for Hurricane Relief.
Sam has already made a place for herself here at the CMC amongst volunteers and members, helping to staff and organize various events, like the hit summer fundraiser “Marx in Soho.” Sam exudes a warmth and intelligence sure to enhance community and student interest in the CMC . We can’t wait to see what life and ideas Samantha Acosta brings to the role of Co-coordinator. Congrats, Sam and good luck!
