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-registering the club each year, reserving rooms and facilities for
club meetings and activites, submitting updated club reports when officer
elections happen, downloading the fundraiser
form, 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, and fill out space
reques and service request forms (available in Bio office). 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.

held with their local humane society (Click HERE

by cuddling animals, the animals get much needed socialization and love, and
the campus community can learn about the shelter's mission and opportunities
for volunteer work.
