Clubs and Organizations

Student clubs can make many positive contributions to the accomplishment of the objectives of the College. Accordingly, participation in approved student clubs that operate on the campus is encouraged.

Procedures for organizing and securing approval of student clubs are outlined below.

A group of students who wish to organize a club should submit a petition to the Assistant Director of Student Engagement for recognition and approval to operate as a student club. A copy of the proposed club bylaws must be attached to the petition. The petition must contain the names of the organizers of the club as well as the name of the faculty advisor of the club.

The Assistant Director of Student Engagement will review the petition. Final approval is subject to the administration. Student clubs approved to operate on the campus are required to:

• Submit annually the Club Information form to the Assistant Director of Student Engagement.
• Sign annually the Statement of Membership.
• Request approval of the Assistant Director Student Engagement to conduct special events, social functions, fund raising drives, or other activities.
• Abide by college regulations concerning the receipt and expenditure of club funds.

Refer to the Club Resources page for more information.
