Thanks for your interest in moderating the Northwestern Discord!
I, Dilan, have been admin on the server for a few years but graduated in June 2024. I don't believe the community can be effectively run just by someone who's no longer a student, so I'm looking to onboard some current students as new mods to help lead the growth of the community and keep it strong.
This server was most active during COVID, as you'd reasonably expect with even current students stuck online looking for people at Northwestern to game with! I didn't start the server but became admin in 2021.
There are now over 4,000 people on the server, but only a handful (around 30 according to server insights) that are active. Your goal as mod would be to do the following:
Keep the community safe. Discord is full of way too many scammers and spammers, so you'll need to be active enough to take care of issues as they arise.
Keep the community active. Once COVID restrictions were lifted, most of us turned less to Discord and more to in-person activities, which is appropriate for a community for a school rather than an online-based community. Regardless, people should want to turn to the Discord server to chat online with other students, alumni, applicants, etc., get answers to questions, share the latest news, and more!
You must be a current student starting at the latest September 2024 and ending at the earliest June 2025.
