Resources for Student Organizations
Marshall Student Org Leaders and Members, are you planning an event soon? Check out the resources below that the Student Affairs Team can provide for you to make your event a success!
Event Planning
All events and programs should be evaluated once they are complete to help others plan similar events and to improve upon then in the future. Evaluation forms must be turned in before reimbursement for any event/program expenses may be processed.
Here are a few steps that will ensure you will get a reimbursement following an event or program.
- View the Program Evaluation Form prior to planning any events to ensure you know what to look for
- Following the event, please complete this form as accurately as possible
- Attach this form to your reimbursements and request approval from your Advisor
- Once you have advisor approval, take all documents to the Executive Assistant's office and fill out the purple clip board located on the filing cabinet
