Event Supervisors
2024 State Tournament · Friday, April 19
What is an Event Supervisor?
Event Supervisors oversee a specific event in accordance with the Science Olympiad
Rules Manual. Event Supervisors design the event, recruit additional team members,
and administer and grade the event on tournament day. Event Supervisors are MSU faculty,
graduate students, staff or members of the community. Members of the Montana Science
Olympiad Club at MSU are also invited to serve as Event Supervisors.
Past experience with Science Olympiad is helpful but not required. We are here to
support your success, whether you are a seasoned veteran or a first year Event Supervisor.
Event Supervisors are vital to a successful tournament, and we are grateful for your
contributions!
