Start a New Student Organization

Want to start a new Student Organization at the Dallas Center?

Things to consider

• Which category (Departmental, Greek, Honorary, Religious, Special Interest, Sports Clubs, or University Sanctioned) best describes your organization?
• What will you name your new organization?
• It is suggested that you have at least 8 students interested in your organization.
• What do you require of students to gain membership in your organization?
• What are the reasons a student should join your organization?
• How will your new organization benefit the TWU Dallas Center community? How is it different from other organizations available at the Dallas Center?
• Who will serve as your faculty/staff advisor?
• How will you elect leadership and/or officers?
• Have you thought about what you would place in a Constitution?
