advisors;
- Initiation fees and other fees;
- Requirements for Membership;
- Copy of its Constitution and By-laws
Petitions should be submitted to the Student Activities Director, as well as Student Government for official recognition. Upon approval, the student group may request allocation funds from Student Government. Important: The above information must be updated and resubmitted within the first two (2) weeks of the beginning of each academic year. Forms are available from the Student Activities Office. Changes must be submitted as they occur during the academic year, e.g. new officers, advisors or constitution revisions. The Director of Student Activities will provide ultimate decision for recognition.
Recognition Privileges: University recognition grants the privileges of using the University facilities and services; the sponsoring of group events, such as social, academic and cultural events, and the right to request funds from the Student Affairs Office or the Student Government.
Withdrawal Recognition: Recognition of an organization may be refused, or if granted, withdrawn because of: policies or practices adverse to education or the best interests of the University; inactivity; or noncompliance with University regulations.
