All registered student organizations are required to re-register with the Office of Student Engagement & Belonging by the beginning of each academic year.
Each organization must complete the Transition Process found inside DSConnect and submit to the Office of Student Engagement and Belonging for approval.
The transition form must include the following:
- Complete description of the organization’s mission and purpose.
- Organization’s Constitution and Bylaws
- The Constitution and Bylaws must meet the standards of Dalton State College as determined by the Catalog and Student Handbook.
- Complete roster with officers and faculty/staff advisor(s).
- Approved logo, crest, coat of arms, etc.
- Complete tiered-based reporting. Click here to learn more about the RSO Tiered-Based System.
All registered student organizations must maintain the standards set within the relationship statement between the university and student organizations. This includes but is not limited to maintaining at least ten (10) active members, at least one faculty/staff advisor, and registration with the Office of Student Engagement and Belonging.
If a student organization does not re-register with the Office of Student Engagement and Belonging by the last day of class of the fall semester, the organization will be considered “inactive”.
If an organization remains inactive for a total of four (4) consecutive academic semesters, the Office of Student Engagement and Belonging may declare the organization as dissolved.
The Office of Student Engagement and Belonging will make every effort to connect students who are interested in reactivating the organization before being declared dissolved.
