Student Organizations Council

The Student Organizations Council is responsible for all chartered organizations on campus, including the organizations’ members and leaders. Each semester, they hear and vote on charter requests and review potential organizations’ constitutions and bylaws to ensure they are in accordance with the mission of the University. It is chaired by two co-chairs appointed by the Treasurer of Student Government.

SOC was separated from the senate of Student Government and placed in the Student Organizations Branch under Student Government Bill No. 4 in the 2022-2023 school year.

How to Charter a Club or Organization

The period for chartering an organization for the Spring 2023 semester is currently close, but will reopen in the Fall of 2024. Interested groups must contact the Office of Student Engagement first to express interest in apply for a charter. From this point, interested clubs are encouraged to apply for application. SOC will then review the applications and conduct interviews with each organization before voting and deciding on chapters. All decisions will be announced at the end of this review period.
