Important Student Activities Updates
If your group did not attend a Student Activities Orientation for the 2013-2014 school year, you must contact the Office of Student Activities to make arrangements to meet with a staff member in our office. No on-campus events will be registered or scheduled for groups that have not completed this requirement. Please email William Takewell, [email protected], to make arrangements for these meetings.

We still need your rosters! Active organization rosters are due to the Office of Student Activities. Rosters can be submitted via email as an Excel document to William Takewell, [email protected]. Rosters were due Sept. 30, however, we will accept them until all groups have turned them in. This will help our office better understand what groups need, and how many people are involved on campus.
