Meet the occifers:
This section is designed to provide you with a little more info on our fine
corps of "occifers". The pep band occifers are elected in the democratic
process during the final rehearsals of the previous year. The term is set to
one year, but all of the "major" occifers must be current students at UCSD.
These include positions such as Manager, Assistant Manager, and Treasurer. We
don't trust our measly budget to just anyone, folks!

Qualifications: Since he was very young Drew has always wanted to be a manager of a Pep Band. At the age of three he won the junior regional manager award for Southern California. At age nine he sued his parents for trying to steal managerial award funds. He spiraled out of control and hit rock bottom when at age 14 and countless checkins to rehab he ended up losing everything and simply went to high school. Things turned around when he came to UCSD, where he climbed the way up the managerial latter to the throne! From historian, to PR Man, and on to Manager! He is now what they say, "living the dream!" He is the definition of a winner!
Job description: The Manager is the leader of the band. They are in charge of organizing events and dealing with anyone who needs to be dealt with. The Manager tends to get their greedy little hands into a bit of everything. Jeff Lamattery
Qualifications:
Job description: The Assistant Manager, aside from assisting the Manager in any way necessary is in charge of planning social events and the famous trip to Davis for Picnic Day. Rose Hill
Qualifications: Rose "Lehman" Hill brings a lot to the position of treasurer. We won't say exactly what she brings, but it most likely comes in a ziploc baggie and probably can't be transported across the border. Her hobbies include topiary (managing those hedge funds is a lot of work) and speaking to children about the dangers of speedball and insider trading as part of her court-mandated community service hours. Rose would like to thank her brother Daniel "Lehman" Hill for the nepotistic influences he exerted during election time to get Rose a place in the officer-core.
Job description: The treasurer is in charge of managing the bank account. Duh. Mimi Jallet
Qualifications: As one of the three members of the ruling party of CV, Mimi has honed the fine art of birthday card writing. When not trying to find new variations on the words Happy Birthday, she can be found behind the counter of Crouton’s hard at work doing the same thing over and over again. She hands out free brownies on Tuesdays while supplies last and if actually buying food may mistake a soda cup for a water cup if you point out the flying rabbits in the kitchen.
Job description: The secretary takes minutes at officer meetings, takes attendance, writes letters when they need to be written, and supposedly sends out birthday cards on the birthdays of our members. Jonathan Nogales
Qualifications: Not much is known about the reclusive figure known as Jon. Those who have seen him report his behavior as "brooding over a computer in a dark room at odd hours of the night, mumbling strange things about segfaults and null pointers while typing cryptic messages in a hurried fervor." He has also been known to don a lab coat and call himself "Dr. That One Guy" while plotting his eventual takeover of Luxembourg. Until then, the good doctor spends his time keeping the pepband safe from rogue ninjas and the evil robots of Dr. Wily, ensuring the website lives on to see another day.
Job description: The webslave is in charge of keeping the website up to date. They are also in charge of handling any problems with the mailing list, and being the laziest officer of them all. Doug Grosser & Neil Salvador
Qualifications: Doug, or Dugalls as he is know by the intergalactic intelligence organization, is here on a mission. However, due to legal issues and lack of planetary knowledge, that mission remains an obscurity. It is of the highest priority to find his target, and aid him in the protection of the known stellar plane!
Hardly the early bird that got the worm, Neil was a sax player for roughly 7 years before finding his true love(s?) in the form of the drum set, and was a music-missing UCSD student for roughly two years before joining the UCSD Pep Band. Now as historian, these days you can find him snapping pictures with his little digital camera, burning through pairs upon pairs of drum sticks, practicing karate out in Revelle plaza, or furiously tryharding at various online computer games. V^_^V
Job description: The historian(s) is in charge of taking pictures to document pep band events. They are also in charge of creating the quarterly scrapbooks. Andrea Cullison Cullison Cullison
Qualifications: After years of scheming....I mean... waiting, Andrea has finally seized the position of Pepband music librarian. Ignore the absurd rumors that her predecessor was shipped to China in a crate … it was actually a row boat. Andrea promises that she will provide every member of the Pepband with books full of the peppiest music, but if you harm her precious music library beware her battalion of thrusting cowbell players.
Job description: The music librarian is in charge of making, updating and distributing our the music to pep band members. Kevin Chu
Qualifications: Kevin is an outrageously handsome fella who is also one of the most humble people you will ever have the pleasure of meeting. His habit of checking his phone to avoid spam on Library Walk has proven useful in answering e-mails and checking Internet trends, often causing him to run into eucalyptus trees but making him an acceptable PR manager. On top of all of these already attractive qualities, he also plays The One True Instrument (tm) and gives great hugs. He would like to thank Jesus Christ and Ryland for their support. Thanks guys! You are the best! xxxxx
Job description: The PR manager is responsible for organizing events and promotions outside of athletics. This includes mostly community events. Grecia Peña
Qualifications: Grecia, who is often seen jumping/dancing around while playing at gigs, is following in the footsteps of the prior great peptide (also known as Hayley). As only a second year in the band, she will often seem confused and lost but really knows whats going on because she can see into the future. Not only does she do that, but even though it may seem that she can be quiet at times, she's got a sonic boom voice that is continuing to get louder and does a pretty good Louis Armstrong impression. When she's not at pepband she can be found sleeping almost anywhere including class, building up energy for the pepband gigs.
Job description: The peptide is responsible for being our liason with the other spirit groups on campus. They are also responsible for being the emobidment of 'pep' for the band, and making sure the band shows it spirit during gigs. They are also in charge of helping new band members out as needed. Lindsay Hickok
Qualifications: Our conductor Lindsay often finds herself stuck in a pickle ...or in this case, the mouth of a T-rex. As a young child adopted into a pack of wolves, she has learned to be anything but ordinary. From her crime-fighting days of being an undercover ninja, to working for Disneyland's Indiana Jones ride as the boulder transporter, she has enough knowledge and willpower to feed an entire 3rd world country. Aside from kicking ass in her sleep, Lindsay enjoys cooking, horror movies, and short walks on the beach. You can often find her sleeping in the pepband hobbit hole anticipating our next gig, or creeping in the men's locker room before a basketball game. She loves playing crazy fast songs, cheering on our fellow UCSDians, and getting creative *juices* flowing for new cheers. She would also like to remind you that every performance is clothing optional!!
Job description: The head conductor keeps the other conductors in line, plans what music we need to rehearse and, obviously, conducting the band. Kirk Wang
Qualifications: The Glorious Hypnotoad
Qualifications ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD
Job description: The hypnotoad has become an integral part of the officer corps, unfortunately this year we seemed to have filled every position. In honor of his dedicated service, we made an officer position specially for him.
