History

Oberlin's Anime Club is rather young. Mike Lyon, who graduated in the spring of 2001, taught Exco classes on anime for about two years. For the time that he was here, he single-handedly filled the niche of an anime club on campus. Seeing that Mike would soon be graduating, a few students revived the charter of a previous anime club (which had failed sometime in the past) in order to ensure that some permanent structure remained on campus to support anime at Oberlin.

Current Officers:

In addition to the four elected positions, anybody who attends showings may participate in club meetings and decisions. The four officers each serve for one full year. The co-president positions are staggered so that one co-president serves from summer to summer, and the other, from winter to winter. This way there can never be two brand-new co-presidents at the same time. Elections for the appropriate positions are held towards the end of each semester.

• Co-President, fall '02 through spring '03: Marshall Duer-Balkind
• Co-President, spring '03 through fall '03: Emily Imhoff (Chuck will be on the AKP program - yay Chuck!)
• Public Relations Officer: Katie Thomas
• Secretary/Treasurer: Oliver Chang
• Librarian: Becca Schlichtig
• Secretary/Treasurer-in-training: ???
