Response to VSO Working Group Report: a Memorandum from Susie Brubaker-Cole, Vice Provost of Student Affairs
Read the memorandum | January 21, 2021
In response to the findings of the Working Group on Voluntary Student Organizations, and the ongoing challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, our team is working in partnership with the ASSU and other stakeholders to review the OSE classification of student organizations, as well as their finances.
The driving force behind this effort is a desire to design policies and practices to better serve student organizations and their leaders. We will focus on co-curricular learning, community building, and moving towards equity in our policies and practices.
If you would like to learn more about the two implementation teams working on this review, you can read their charges and see their membership below.
We are eager to involve students in the design of our new policies and processes. We will provide on-going updates, however if you would like to be more involved please fill out this form.
