UWMC Clubs and Organizations
Campus clubs offer
opportunities for students to share similar interests
while enhancing skills,
which can bolster resumes, references, and
scholarship applications.
All clubs must submit registrations forms each year to be active.
To create a campus
club, here is what you need:
* a constitution stating the club's purpose and
meeting schedule
* an election of four student officers
*a faculty or staff
advisor
Officially chartered clubs can request up to $500 from the Student
Government Association
and utilize campus resources such as meeting rooms and
bulletin boards.
Valuable information & forms are available here:
