If a group of students is seeking to be a recognized student organization, or for an updated list of recognized organizations, contact the University Student Senate at ext. 8432.

Becoming a recognized student organization does not imply that the University Student Senate or the university endorses the organization’s beliefs, but it does provide groups with the opportunity to enjoy the following benefits: use of the university name in the organization’s title, use of university facilities for organization activities, campus advertising privileges, use of administrative services, and opportunity to apply for student funding through SUFAC funds.
