FAQs

  • Stop by RMCC 220 for a “Club/Organization Start-Up Kit.” To start a new club on campus, we suggest that you meet with the Director of Student Activities to discuss your ideas. You will then need to find at least 10 interested students and a faculty/staff advisor, compose a letter of intent, and create a club constitution. All new clubs and organizations are voted on by the Student Government Association. Our office will assist you with these steps and help you through the process.

    1. Design a flyer announcing your campus event. 
    2. Bring a copy of your flyer to the Center for Student Leadership & Involvement office (RMCC 220) for approval.
    3. The Center for Student Leadership & Involvement office staff will review and, if approved, stamp and post the flyer. Flyers are posted on bulletin boards across campus. 

    There are a lot of other ways to advertise (table tents, door hangers, banners, messages on our TV monitors, etc.), too.  Stop by and we’ll help!
