Raider Entertainment
General Council Application
Raider Entertainment is a student group under the supervision of the MTSU Student Programming &
Activities office. It is Raider Entertainment’s mission to provide quality, low-cost entertainment for students
throughout the year.
Why join? Students involved with Raider Entertainment will have opportunities to get event planning and
coordination experience, paid employment, and network through meeting new friends and getting
involved. With paid employment positions, general council members will have first priority of shifts for
both the Video Theater, and Football Game Day Activities. Events held throughout the school year include
concerts, trivia nights, movie screenings, and much more.
Our motto in Raider Entertainment is “your campus, your entertainment.” Being involved with the council
is your chance to provide creative input and skills that will shape MTSU’s campus life and continue to grow
the foundation that has been laid before you. The majority of our funding comes from student activity fees
that are built into tuition, and you will be entrusted to spend this money on cost-effective, high-quality
programming. Through this, Raider Entertainment transforms your campus into your entertainment. To
become a member of Raider Entertainment’s General Council, you must be able to meet the following
requirements:
1. Attend all weekly general meetings. The meeting time is on Mondays at 4:30pm in
Student Union Room 224.
2. Provide at least 20 hours of service including Raider Entertainment events and
promotions throughout the semester. Students will be required to support both
event logistics and event promotion (handbilling, tables, etc.)
3. Attend Raider Entertainment trainings and other mandatory events.
4. Be a currently enrolled student in good standing with the university.
If you are interested in joining, please complete the application. General Council membership is limited to
