Organization Changes

  • How do we change our organization's officers?

    President, Treasurer, or Advisor Changes

    Anytime there is a change to an organization's President, Treasurer, or Advisor, an organization member must submit a Student Org Change Form to officially notify SLIC of the change.

      • Any current, incoming, or outgoing officer may submit the form.
      • The form will require documentation (meeting minutes, a signed statement from the outgoing officer, etc) to verify the change. 
      • After submitting, SLIC staff will review your form and follow up with further instructions via email. 
      • Note: If the officer change is occuring during the Annual Recognition period at the end of the academic year, you do not need to submit a change form. 

    After the Org Change Form has been submitted, the incoming President, Treasurer, or Advisor should submit an Officer/Advisor Agreement Form

    Other Officer Changes

  • How do we change our organization name?
    • To request an organization name change, a current organization officer must submit a Student Org Change Form to officially notify SLIC of the change.
    • After submitting, a SLIC staff will review your form and follow up with further instructions via email. 
  • How do we update/change our organization's constitution?
    • To amend your constitution, you must follow the amendment procedures in your current document. This will most likely involve presenting proposed changes to your membership for approval.
    • After your membership has approved the changes, a current organization officer must submit a Student Org Change Form to notify SLIC of the proposed changes.
    • The form will require documentation (such as meeting minutes showing the result of the vote) to verify the change. 
    • After submitting, a SLIC staff will review your form and follow up with further instructions via email. 

Tabling, Events, & 25Live

  • How do we reserve a room or outdoor space on campus for a meeting or event?
    To reserve space on campus for a meeting or event, you will need to submit a reservation on 25Live, the campus space reservation system. For detailed instructions on how to use 25Live, visit our Events, Tabling, & 25Live page
  • How can we set up a table on campus?

    All student organizations are expected to submit a reservation on 25Live to request a space for tabling on campus. All tabling reservations must be submitted at least 5 business days in advance. For detailed instructions on how to use 25Live, visit our Events, Tabling, & 25Live page

    USU Locations: Student organizations tabling at the USU (USU Arcade, Forum Plaza, Ballroom, Meeting Rooms, etc) are eligible to receive a table and chairs free of charge. To receive a table and/or chairs, you must indicate your need for a table and chairs in your 25Live reservation.

    Other campus locations: Student organizations tabling at any campus location other than the USU may request to borrow a table and chairs from SLIC free of charge. To request a table and chairs, submit your request via the SLIC Item Checkout Form. If you request a table and chairs for a non-USU location in your 25Live reservation, you will be charged for setup.
