Club Officers: To keep up with SGA's Guidelines for Student Organizations
please see the FMU's
Student Organization Guide and Policy Handbook! It contains information
about re-chartering the club each year, reserving rooms and facilities for
club meetings and activites, submitting updated club reports when officer
elections happen, downloading Fundraising
Forms and Statement Reports, and other important club duties. If the
club wants to plan an event on campus (fundraisers,invite speakers, or activities),
put up posters around campus, get events listed in the campus paper, or
place notices or advertisements on mass media open to the public, please
consult the online Planning
Events & Programs, Guidelines and Responsibilities. It is up to
you to be familiar with rules, regulations, and procedures for club activities.
If you ever have questions please ask the Associate Dean of Students, LaTasha
Brand, or the Dean of Students, Teresa
Ramey.

Thanks to our club officers (Caitlin, Amy Lee, andCameron) for attending
the FMU Club Training session at 9am on Saturday Aug 29th! We learned
a lot about keeping our club active and a good emissary for FMU's student
leadership. Attending this meeting, and re-chartering our club for the year
has ensured that this year we can access funds from Student Government Association
(SGA) for some of our club activities. So when you see our officers - thank
them!
Many thanks to those that attended the Student Involvement Fair
on Thursday Sep 3 from 1 - 4pm. Caitlin says there was a lot of interest
in our club and about 30 people signed up at our booth. Booyah!
Our first Club meeting is scheduled for Thursday Sept 10th at
5pm in LSF 205. We will discuss what activities we want to hold this
semester, come up with a schedule, and enjoy some light refreshments. Come
with ideas! Also, we need to get going on club T-shirts this semester! See
you there!
Our next Club meeting is scheduled for Thursday Sep 24th at 5pm
in LSF 205. We will discuss more about club T-shirts, holding a fundraising
car wash, and also having a campus-wide fundraiser called "Pie-a-Professor-for-Pets.
We also need to figure out when and for which Humane Society to hold a Supply
Drive.
Volunteer to help at the Florence Area Humane Society Saturday
Sep 26! Pre-Vet Club members are going to team up with Biology Club
members to go help out, starting at 9 am(?). There is much we could do:
walk dogs on the trail, socialize kittens and cats, help with cleaning,
among other things. Come if you can!
Guest Speaker from SNIP at our
next meeting, Thur Oct 15, 5pm in LSF 202. Come and enjoy
pizza and our speaker from SNIP - the Spay and Neuter Intervention of the
Pee Dee program in Florence. This is a wonderful program that provides low
cost spay and neuter services to the public, area rescue groups, and shelters.
Update from this meeting. Thanks to all that came. Dr. Sarah Vindi Herron
gave us a great overview of what SNIP does for the Pee Dee community. She
also answered lots of questions about what it was like to apply for and
go through veterinary school, as well as her insights into job satisfaction
and finding what area of veterinary medicine is best for you.
