To be recognized as a student organization at ÂÒÂ×ÊÓÆµ, a group of students must adhere to the following eligibility criteria:
Membership Requirements: The group must consist of at least five members, with three serving as officers (President, Vice President, and Treasurer). Unless granted a one-time, one-semester exemption, each officer must:
Advisor Requirement: The group must have a full-time LU employee as their advisor. This advisor should not advise more than five other organizations and must complete annual Risk Management training as mandated by the .
Purpose and Mission: The organization's purpose and mission should be unique, distinct from existing student organizations, and align with the university's purpose, mission, and goals, as well as comply with all policies and laws.
Membership Criteria: Membership in the organization should be open to LU students without discrimination based on race, color, creed, sex, age, handicap, or national origin, in accordance with .
Title IX-exempt Greek-letter Organizations: Additionally, any Title IX-exempt Greek-letter fraternity or sorority (as defined under ) must also be granted membership by the LU Greek Council and receive confirmation from relevant governing bodies such as the National Pan-Hellenic Council, Inter-Fraternity Council, College Panhellenic Council, Independent Greek Council, or Multicultural Greek Council.
Once all eligibility requirements are met, the group should proceed with the Registration process available on (after sign in). Upon approval, registration is valid for the remainder of the current semester plus the next semester (Fall and Spring only).
Every student organization must renew its registration each year to stay active and meet eligibility requirements, noted above. Registrations are valid for two semesters. If more than two semesters have passed since the last registration when a new semester begins, the organization will need to re-register. Outgoing (or continuing) Officers can start this process through the organization's Group Page on LU Hub.
Note:
To add, remove, or replace registered officers and/or advisors, organizations can use the "Update Officers" button located within the Officers section of their Group Page on LU Hub. All appointed officers will undergo a review process to ensure they meet the eligibility requirements. During this period, the organization will be temporarily locked until all officers and advisors fulfill the outlined registration requirements.
Note: This process is considered renewing a group's registration.
