Small and large groups may become recognized student groups through a simple application process.

Apply for Recognized Status

To apply for this status the following needs to be sent to the Dean of Students:

1. Names and emails of two Luther students who will serve as contact persons for the school year.
2. A brief statement of the name and mission of the group.
3. An acknowledgement that the group will abide by all policies outlined in the student handbook.

Privileges

Recognized student groups receive the following privileges:

1. Group information posted on the Inside Luther web site.
2. Access to reserving rooms and display tables.
3. Assistance in creating a listserv for electronic communication.
4. Invitation to have a display during First Week and at the Volunteer Fair in early September (must be recognized by August 23 for this purpose.)

Renew Status Annually

Recognized student groups must renew their status annually at the start of the school year. All that is necessary for renewal is an email to the Dean of Students with the names of the two student contacts for the new school year and an indication that the previous information about mission and agreement to follow policies is still applicable.

The only exceptions are Student Council, The Concord, seminary families, and the community garden project.
