Resources for Student Organizations

The staff within the Office of Student Inclusion, Involvement & Leadership, the Student Life Center, and the Olmsted Center & Pomerantz Student Union wants to make sure your student event is a success!  In order to achieve this goal, student organizations need to be aware of the processes and forms that must be followed and completed to keep things on track.  Consider this information to be similar to a course syllabus; in order to do well on any given assignment or an academic course, it’s important to follow the information provided by the professor. 

By working with your organization advisor and professional staff in advance of the event and/or program, your organization will be well on its way to achieving its goal(s) surrounding your event.  Working collectively, communication will improve and the event outcome should hopefully turn out as expected!  Remember, we are here to help – don’t hesitate to Contact the staff!
