Organizations and Officers

Any student holding an office in any organization on the campus must carry a minimum course load of 12 hours each semester and must not have accumulated more than 64 hours. Students on probation may not hold offices within the College. Any exceptions must be approved by the Dean of Student Services.

Any student seeking nomination for any elected office should contact the organization’s sponsor(s) and must submit in his/her platform for office to the sponsor(s). After the platform is approved, the student will be given instructions concerning the display of campaign material.

Any student or group of students desiring to form new campus organizations must use the following procedures:

  2. The Dean of Student Services refers this statement to the Student Services Committee to determine if the proposed organization is in keeping with the philosophy of the College.
  3. If the Student Services Committee approves the proposed organization, the Dean of Student Services forwards the information to the Dean of Instruction for the appointment of a sponsor and provides the Student Government Association the constitution and bylaws for approval.
  4. If the Student Government Association approves the constitution and bylaws and the Dean of Instruction appoints a sponsor, the Dean of Student Services presents all of the above to the President for final approval.
  5. If the President approves, the Dean of Student Services will issue a permit to hold an organizational meeting.
