Hello Student Leaders & Advisors,
Welcome Back! I hope you all had a restful Spring Break. 😊
There are a couple of important reminders, so please pay close attention to the details listed below.
- RSO Calendar Planning Session 1: The first Calendar Planning Session is on Wednesday, March 15 at 6:00 p.m. in Lathem Hall. It is a requirement to send two (2) incoming members of your organization to attend. We will be going over event planning and Presence training. Ideally, you should be sending the incoming President and the position that oversees events for Fall 2023. Failure to send two representatives will result in being ineligible to submit an SGA Budget Allocation.
- SGA Budget Allocation Workshops: SGA Budget Allocation Workshops will be held the week of March 20. Please note that it is required to send your President and Treasurer to attend one (1) session. There will be two sessions hosted in person, and one session held virtually. The virtual sessions will be recorded. Anyone who is unable to attend a session will be required to watch the recorded session and answer questions about the video.
- SGA Budget Allocations Due: SGA Budget Allocations are due on Friday, March 24. Allocations submitted by organizations that did not attend the above sessions will be denied. All organizations who meet the deadline will receive an email with all budget decisions by Tuesday, April 4.
- RSO Calendar Planning Session 2: The second Calendar Planning Session is on Wednesday, April 5 at 6:30 p.m. in Lathem Hall. It is a requirement to send two (2) incoming members of your organization to attend. Please come prepared with a full calendar of your fall semester events. During this session, you will submit your events on both 25Live and Presence. All requests must be in by the end of the semester to hold your spot on the calendar.
- Last Day for Event Registrations: All event registrations must be put in by Friday, April 7. Anything submitted after that will be denied.
- Last Day for Expenditure Requests: All expenditure requests must be put in by Friday, April 14. Anything that is submitted after will be denied.

- Student Organization Budget Audits: During break, SGA will run budget audits for all organizations receiving SGA funding. All unspent funds will be reclaimed.
- Student Leader GPA Checks: During break, the Office of Student Engagement will run GPA checks. As a reminder, it is a requirement to have a minimum of a 2.5 GPA or higher to hold a leadership position.
An updated AY 2023 Timeline and Key Dates is attached with all of the above dates. If you have any questions or would like to discuss these deadlines further, please do not hesitate to reach out.
