Forming a Campus Organization
The following guidelines should be followed to establish a campus organization:
a. Any student group wishing to become an official organization on the OCU campus must present a written constitution (20 copies) to the Office of Student Life. A sample constitution is available in the Office of Student Life.
b. The proposed organization must have a faculty member who has agreed to sit on a fact-finding session with the University Student Life Committee and to meet regularly with the proposed organization.
c. The objectives of the organization (as stated in its constitution) must be in overall harmony with those of the University.
d. The membership of the proposed organization must be composed entirely of enrolled Oklahoma City University students.
e. Upon review of the constitution, the dean of Students may grant the proposed campus organization.
f. Each organization, if recognized, is required to file a membership activity report with the Office of the Student Activities Coordinator. Failure to file membership and activity reports in any semester will nullify official recognition, and the organization will become inactive through suspension.
g. Any group of a religious nature or background must have clearance from the Dean of the Chapel prior to their petition to the dean of students.
h. Any organization who receives funds from dues or other sources must obtain an agency account from the Oklahoma City University Business Office.
