3.06 - Student Organization Policy

Purpose

To address a recognized student club, organization, and/or special interest group.

Policy Statement

A student club, organization, and/or special interest group may be officially recognized based on completing the following criteria:

1. Adheres to the required procedures for a recognized student club, organization, and/or special interest group provided by the Office of Student Activities.
2. Receives approval from the Student Senate

Based on the approval the club, organization, and/or special interest group is required to follow the Student Senate constitution and bylaws, KCKCC policies, operating procedures, and federal and state laws. Only currently enrolled KCKCC credit students may be official members of the club, organization, and/or special interest groups. The advisor and club, organization and/or special interest group representatives must use the approved student activities funds only for the allocated categories: travel, social events/activities, supplies, and speakers.

If a club, organization and/or special interest group is denied approval, they must appeal within 10 days from the date of the denial to the Director of Student Activities and include a description of the appeal. The Student Senate parliamentarian, Director of Student Activities, Dean of Student Services and/or the Vice President of Student Affairs and Enrollment Management review the appeal and a final decision will be determined.

Additional requirements, procedures and information related to a club, organization, and/or special interest group are maintained by the Office of Student Activities and listed on the Student Senate roster and Student Activities clubs, organizations, and special interest groups webpage.
