Expectations

At least one meeting per semester must be open to all students, including prospective new members. Make sure this meeting is well advertised and added to the Student Life calendar. 

Additionally, remember to send a student representative to the General Assembly meetings hosted by Student Government. There are no "excused absences"; organizations must find an alternative way to meet with Student Government officers if they cannot attend General Assembly.

At least once per semester, the group should sponsor some kind of service project. At least three students must take part.

Community service is defined broadly. Your group might raise money to donate, volunteer to do service work in person, or create some kind of awareness campaign for an important cause.

At least once per semester, the group should host an educational program for its members (it can also be open to other students).

Your project could be an off-campus educational field trip, inviting a guest speaker to a meeting, or having a student or faculty member present their own research.

At least once per semester, the group should host an activity, event, or program open to the general student population.

This is your chance to show off and meet people outside the group! It could be a fun social event or something more serious but, either way, it must be open to students who aren't already members of your group (and, maybe, they'll want to join after).
