When to use it

Election notices, recruitment posters and a constitution's appendix all need a chart that tells new students which committees exist and what each does. A duty under every committee is more useful for recruiting than names alone. Clubs and class councils can use the same structure.

Make it yours

Rename committees for your campus, and update the lines when you merge or split them.
To add chair names, use a line break in the committee box.
For a recruitment poster, pick a bold theme before exporting PNG.
