SECTION I: CHARTERING
(Modified from August 2001 Main Campus Chartering Student Organization Policy)
I. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Chartered Student Organizations (CSOs) are formed to further the common interest of the members of the group and the University community. The role of chartered student organizations is an essential part of the co-curricular program at the University. Open to all students and facilitated through faculty and staff resource persons, these organizations develop many opportunities for learning, which supplement and reinforce the classroom activities for students.
