How to Start a Club
- Find a
faculty advisor at COC who will be interested in supporting your
club
- Find
seven
current COC students to serve as founding members
- Write a
constitution using the Sample Constitution Guideline as an
example
- Complete
each of the following forms:
- (a)
Petition for Club Charter with seven names minimum, all of
whom must be students of COC
- (b)
Chartering Form
- Submit all
forms along with one copy of the constitution to the Office of
Student Development for review
- Submit
minutes from an official meeting of the founding members
reflecting voting and adopting of the group's constitution and
selection of interim officers
- Follow up
on the status of the submitted forms
The
Constitutional Review Committee will make a recommendation on the
granting of a charter to the Inter Club Council and the Associated
Student Government. The granting of College recognition shall be
determined by the Office of Student Development. The Office of
Student Development will notify the club of its status in writing.
The chartering
process for clubs and organizations involves a procedure for
recognition by three entities: (1) The Office of Student Development
for official on-campus status which entitles the group to use the
College name and most campus facilities; (2) The Associated Student
Government to be eligible for ASG funding and services; and (3) The
Inter Club Council (ICC). Organizations and clubs will be reviewed
in terms of both their congruence with the educational mission of
the campus and the level of risk involved for both the students and
the campus.
