<p>I mean my yearbook has no award you can earn, no leadership position you can get. there is no editor or treasurer (the advisor does that) and there are no awards for yearbook so all you can do is be a member. It's the same for some other clubs im in, what should i do?</p>
<p>so no one has this problem? just me? ok great just checking.</p>
<p>sometimes you just gota love doing YrBk, with or without positiions... cuase every other club president in the school begs you for pics. at least that's what happens at my school. oh and i know the person heading yrbk.. she spends EVERY SINGLE lunch hour working/labouring over yrbk and she doesn't even get any kind of leadership position/recognition whatsoever.</p>
<p>Ouch</p>
<p>that sucks how you don't have positions in the yearbook committee. do you have designated areas of concentration then?</p>
<p>I'm on yearbook too! But we have titles. I LOVE IT!</p>
<p>a large part of the clubs at my school have no leadership position whatsoever...and I'm worried that this aspect will leave me at a disadvantage among my applicant pool in the future. What will adcoms think if they see I have few leadership position, mainly because most of the clubs I'm in have no positions? Will they know that there were simply no positions, or will they think I didn't work hard enough to recieve one?</p>
<p>Leadership isn't defined just by title, but by impact. For instance, if one creates and organizes a club project, one can list that. An example: "Created and organized with Key Club a school-wide talent show that raised $2,000 for hurricane Katrina victims."</p>
<p>Doing something like that can be more impressive than holding an empty title.</p>
<p>One also can write an essay demonstrating one's leadership in an organization.</p>
<p>It is not, however, acceptable to say that you didn't have leadership positions or do any type of leadership things because there was no opportunity. The top colleges expect students to create opportunities and to do this out of genuine interest, not because they are trying to dress up their resumes.</p>
<p>That doesn't mean forcing your school to give you a title, but it means your doing the hard work of organizing and creating projects that put into place your vision. </p>
<p>If one can't do this in one's school, then the top colleges want the kind of students who find ways of exerting leadership in their place of worship, neighborhood, community group, etc.</p>
