Belleville West Key Club Case Study
Senior Abby Mast has taken her position as the new Governor of Key Club with enormous optimism and gratitude. Mast was elected last year and has had previous success and roots in the Belleville West Key Club.
Mast joined the club as a freshman who was a dedicated member and achieved over 200 hours of community service. As a sophomore, Mast was elected as club secretary and junior year achieved the status as Lieutenant Governor. At the close of her junior year, she was encouraged to run for the position of Governor.
“It wasn’t my idea to originally run as Governor, but the former Governor and Mrs. Stauffer urged me to consider it, so I finally decided to agree to it,” Mast said.
Elections for the open offices took place last year in March

“Since I was running unopposed it wasn’t really a shock, but it definitely was exciting since it was made official,” Mast said.
With the new position came new and more responsibilities concerning Key Club. Mast is now in charge of 200 clubs and 10,504 members in Illinois and Eastern Iowa. Mrs. Jennifer Stauffer, sponsor of Key Club, showed her positivity about Mast’s new leadership position.
“Her position as the leader of 200+ clubs and 10,000 student members gives her the opportunity to affect many more service projects than if she only served the local club,” Mrs. Stauffer said.
She sends out weekly emails to the board of other Lieutenant Governors and is in charge of managing the social media accounts of Key Club. Her duties also include running numerous board meetings and attending out-of-state club functions representing the Illinois and Eastern Iowa Key Club.
Key Club member and senior Cameron Walther discussed how Mast’s leadership has impacted Key Club. “Abby leads very personally, she takes Key Club and it’s members seriously and treats them and thinks of them as family. I think she’s a great Governor and keeps people motivated and on task,” Walther

    Dance Team Captain

    The term captain is synonymous with the term leader. By definition, a leader is someone who is in an advanced position to take the initiative in order to go forth and show the way. A dance captain should be able to make intelligent and creative decisions quickly and efficiently. Dance teams are all about unity. An exceptional group glides across the floor with all of its dancers moving as one. There are no individual standouts. No weak links. But there is one person whose job is to make the team as strong as possible, on the floor and off. It’s one thing to be a good team player, but it's another to be a good captain. Few will have the opportunity to feel the weight of the responsibilities and the happiness of knowing you're making a difference. Being captain of any type of organization in my eyes is a huge job. It’s teaching respect by showing respect. It’s helping 11 girls, including myself, strive and push themselves to be the best dancers I know we all can be. Having the title of captain doesn’t mean being the boss of everyone, being in the front in every dance, or just thinking that the captain should come before everyone else. Captains are the inspiration of the team. They’re the person that everyone on the team looks up too. Being a natural born leader is also a big role of dance team. That means having self-confidence, good communication skills, courage, clear desire to make progress towards a goal, and a fair degree of understanding your fellow teammates. Being a captain requires you to focus on the big picture, doing what’s best for your team even on your worst days. If you’re negative, the team will take on the same attitude, even if everyone else has had a great day. As captain of your dance team, you’ll definitely encounter some sticky situations, like having to confront your friends when they aren’t practicing full-out or telling an injured teammate that she’ll have to sit out a performance. But it’s…

    In this case, we noticed that there were a lot of weaknesses of internal controls and monitoring in the club. Firstly, even though the checks were needed to be signed by two people, Fancy asked Sarah to sign the blank checks so that she can pay suppliers on time. However, there were no other people monitor Fancy to write the checks, she could write what she wants on the checks. Secondly, the duties were not segregated appropriately in this company. Fancy had the ability to order supplies, sign the checks, and record the money, so she had power to make fault orders, sign the checks by herself, and make the wrong record without any supervising. Furthermore, the alcoholic beverages supplier which was her college classmate was skeptical…
