External Organization Policy
Student Activities Office Process for Working with External Organizations
- There are relationships with external organizations that have been initiated by the Division of Student Life to broaden the diversity of its campus offerings in student life. Some recent examples include Planned Parenthood, Be the Match, and other not for profit organizations that work through the Community Outreach and Opportunity Project (COOP) as well as faith based groups that work through the Chaplaincy.
- If there are other local organizations that wish to offer services or partner with our students, and the external organization desires access to campus – in addition to the resources they offer off-campus – it will require the action of a current student organization or the creation of a new student organization that will follow all guidelines outlined by the Student Activities Office
- That student organization will work with the Assistant Director of Student Activities or other designated staff member as their advisor, and will communicate all activities to that advisor.
- The student organization, as an organization/campus chapter coordinated by the Student Activities Office, will be part of a budgetary funding request process overseen and determined by the Student Assembly. The student organization has the privileges granted to any student organization, including making space reservations, email access, campus facilities and other privileges.
