Welcome to this week's Student Leader Updates! I hope everyone's general interest meetings and events have been going great so far. Thanks to everyone that has been posting on the feed in Club Macaulay, we've been seeing a lot of success with outreach so far. If you need us, don't forget to reach out.

Reminder, Scholars Council's September Budget Allocation submission deadline is September 19th at 9am.

NEW: Snack Drawer

Begininng today, we'll have a limited supply of some oreos and pringles for clubs to use at their events or meetings. The snack drawer is in the Projector Room (located on 2nd Floor behind the Screening Room). Please note that these are first-come, first-serve and will not be deducted from your club budgets. You will need to sign your club's name when you take one so we can track and know how this is being used. This is the honor system, so please only take 1 pack of cookies or a few things of chips, and return unused snacks. (Remember you can also grab pitchers/ice in the kitchen (C-level), and water behind the bar in the Commons).

Have leftover snacks after your event? Donate to the snack drawer so that other groups can use them.

Club Council

Friday 9/22/23 at 4pm is the next Club Council meeting. Just a reminder, this is a mandatory meeting and each club is required to send at least 1 leader to represent their group. In addition, this month we'll be talking about recruitment, fostering engagement in your members, and badges in Club Macaulay. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Yassir.Azzam@macaulay.cuny.edu
 

Club Registration

Club reregistration is live. Remember you need to clarify your goals, have updated members, and all of your issues resolved by 9/22/23 in order to remain an active club this year. Click here for more info on Club Registration.

SPARC

We still do not have access to enroll students in this mandatory training. We're doing everything we can to get our students access to this, and are relying on CUNY Central office to help resolve this. We're very sorry this is taking so long 😫

Considering the deadline to complete SPARC training is next week, we will be moving the deadline to accomodate this lateness. Once we're able to get students enrolled in the training, we will communicate a new deadline. Just a reminder, all club officers are required to take SPARC Title IX Sexual Misconduct training each academic year.

Event Planning Workshop

Next week on 9/20, Student Development will be hosting an Event Planning workshop. This is a great opportunity for new club leaders, if you're looking to hone your skills, or if you want to train any new officers/members for a bigger role in your group. (RSVP below!)
