Available Services & Resources
Organization Storage LockersStudent organizations that want to be considered for a metal storage locker in the Student Union, must submit an Space Request Form to Student Involvement each spring through Presence. The term of the lease is one year and will terminate on the end date. A group with an existing metal storage locker has no guarantee that they will be reassigned the same space for the following year. Student organizations should not invest in any item or promotional material that would indicate this is a permanent space for the group. Metal lockers are to be used for student organization business only.
All registered Student Organizations have a portal in Panther Presence and each portal comes with a public facing page which acts as a website. The organization’s public page is easy to setup and updates automatically as you add content in Presence with access set to Public.
The contents of documents and pages must not violate any applicable laws and regulations, must not constitute a copyright or trademark infringement, or otherwise violate any local, state or federal laws.
