Student group recognition is granted for the term of one year beginning
June 1st. Petitions for recognition must be renewed annually between
June 1st and September 30 of that academic year for previously recognized student groups.
A graduate student group recognized by the Graduate Student Senate
is afforded all of the rights and privileges as described under Article VI, section B of the Graduate Student Senate Bylaws and
are also to be held accountable to the CWRU Student Rights and Responsibilities
policy published in the CWRU General Bulletin and Student Services Guide.
Recognition is conditional upon acceptance of that policy and the following
terms:
- The membership of the organization must consist of at least 50% full or part-time CWRU graduate students.
- The organization not restrict its membership or participation in its activities on the basis of handicap, race, sex, sexual preference, age, religion, or national or ethnic origin (through affirmation of the CWRU anti-discrimination policy in the group's constitution or bylaws).
Upon receipt and processing of this form the Graduate Student Senate
Student Organizations and Allocations Committee will request a copy of
the ratified bylaws for the organization seeking recognition in order
to verify that the organization meets the requirements set forth for
recognition.
The Graduate Student Senate reserves the right to revoke recognition
from any group found to not adhere to all the policies and regulations
governing recognized graduate student groups.
This electronic petition will only be processed if accompanied by a valid
email address for the person submitting the petition. Petition forms are
available as hard copy through the Graduate Studies
office.
