Tree Mail Week 6

Happy week 6, last weekend I kicked off Friday with a 🏊🏽 poolside screening of Mamma Mia and the elite snack combo: Twizzlers + popcorn +musicals =EXTREME W . Saturday brought Junior Formal at the Cantor Arts Center—not my first time there, but being in the museum at night? Total Night at the Museum vibes.

Only one L from this weekend, missing 🎀 JoJo Siwa’s speech. But in her own words: “I’m a come back like a boomerang” 🪃 — so catch me front row submitting the Annual Registration Form. I mean better to get it in earlier, rather than later if you want to ensure your club is ready for next school year.

The night wrapped at 🌶️ Chili’s with a Triple Dipper and a Coke (usually a diet coke no ice, but felt risky), and Sunday was all about tradition: kicked off my annual rewatch of How to Get Away with Murder while wondering how we’re already halfway through the quarter?? Safe to say, this weekend was a certified MET-tier success.

Student Org Notes 

Re-Registration for Student Orgs 

CardinalEngage has a blue bar at the top of your dashboard awaiting your club’s re-registration! Now is the time before academic priorities begin to heat up. This year’s form has been streamlined to a third of the size compared to last year. Re-Registration is mandatory for your club or it will go dormant. Dormant-status clubs are not allowed to participate in FestiFall because they are no longer a recognized student organization. Click on the image or click here to check out our How-To video.

Off-Campus Fundraising 

Student organizations must receive university approval through the Office of Student Engagement and Office of Development prior to fundraising from corporations. Approval must be requested in the Spring quarter to fundraise for the next academic year. To begin this process, 2025-2026 leaders (President, VP, FO) are required to attend a training to learn about fundraising guidelines and the approval process. Training sessions will be held May 14th (Wednesday) at 3pm and May 16th (Friday) at 5pm.  See an overview of the fundraising timeline here.

To prepare for training, student organizations must first elect new leadership and begin transitioning roles. Please fill out this form by Friday, May 9th to RSVP and provide 2025-2026 leadership contact information so we can communicate training details and important updates. Be sure to complete the annual re-registration process as well.

Student organizations will be given access to the application form in Cardinal Engage after all 3 authorized officers have attended training. The deadline to apply is Friday, May 30th.
