To assist in the planning of these events, check out the Organization Event Planning form. This form does not need to be turned in to the Student Activities Office. The Organization Event Planning form is a resource for you to use with your organization and you develop your three required activities for the year. Perhaps it can be used at a meeting as a template for brainstorming and deciding what events you are going to host this year!
Once you have decided what events you are going to host and it's time to host your first event, please fill out the Event Reporting form. This form needs to be returned to the Student Activities Office at least 2 weeks prior to your event. As you are determing dates, be sure to check the Student Activities Calendar for any conflicting events!
