<p>Do colleges understand how much work really goes into being an LTG?</p>
<p>oh it looks really bad. how dare you like to lead a community service club! weirdo.</p>
<p>Are you by any chance from SoCal? I don’t think LTG really does anything for you UNLESS you actually show that you contributed to the community. The same applies for every club/organization.</p>
<p>Did you by any chance go to cali-nev-ha dcon?</p>
<p>anyways, there IS room for you to explain how tough LTG is in case they might now know. Common app has a section where you elaborate on one of your extra curriculars. I did water polo & how hard it was for me. You could do the same for Keyclub.</p>
<p>Well it does ask for the hours per week you put into each activity, or the total hours, or both depending on the application. Most applications do ask for a brief description of the job. There is always room for “extra information”, which you can include information about the activity, or elaborate on those “write about one activity box”. Most application also allow you to upload an optional resume, so you could go into more detail in your resume - the responsibilities, hours etc.</p>
<p>Being a loyal officer/member of Key Club, I can tell you that LTG SHOULD mean a lot. The main problem is that you have to specify what level of LTG you are at (Division/Region/State), and you could always talk about the special service events or events that you were supposed to have held while in office.</p>
<p>yummy and w0o: district 29! DCON was so great!</p>
<p>I have a chance to become LTG of my district, but I’m thinking that it will take a ton of time out of my schedule. =/ And with 5 AP classes, volunteering, work, etc…too much.</p>
