All student organizations are required to have an advisor who is a current faculty or staff
member. Many advisors choose varying degrees of involvement with student organizations
throughout the academic year.
An Advisor’s Role is to:

- Support organization meeting and events
- Attend meetings as agreed to by the student organization and advisor
- Monitor and advise on fundraising and budgeting practices
- Clarify campus policies, procedures, and overall processes
- Ensure student safety at all times
An Advisor’s Role is not to:
- Direct the path of the student organization
- Manage all administrative functions of the organization
- Transport students via advisor’s personal vehicle for any on/off-campus events
