How to Join a Club

Cascadia clubs are open to all currently enrolled students. There are no requirements to join a club, so if you are interested in participating, the best way is to show up to one of their meetings or contact them directly to learn more.

Start a New Club

Starting a club at Cascadia is easier than ever! There are two different club levels with slightly different criteria and privileges. Clubs have the ability to choose their club level depending upon the extent of involvement and activities they would like to lead.

To apply for recognition as a new club, fill out the Club Application for Recognition form. New clubs are recognized every 2 weeks during the Club Council meeting. Clubs can begin to be recognized at the start of Fall quarter and throughout the academic year.

  1. Find three to five (3-5) currently enrolled Cascadia students who share your interest in starting the club. Level 1 Clubs must have a minimum of three (3) members to start, and Level 2 Clubs must have a minimum of five (5) club members. There is no maximum number of members for either club level.
  2. If you wish to be a Level 2 Club, find a Cascadia College employee who is willing to advise your club, travel with your club, and attend club meetings and events. Club Advisors are required for Level 2 Clubs, but are optional for Level 1 Clubs.
  3. Complete the Club Application for Recognition form.
  4. A representative from your club must attend the next scheduled Club Council meeting to present the proposed club to club members at Club Council. The Office of Student Life will email the club an invitation to attend the meeting. Club Council members will review your Club Application for Recognition form and will vote on the approval and recognition of your club.
  5. Within a week of recognition status, two club representatives from the newly recognized club must complete a new club orientation with the Student Life Advisor. After completing the new club orientation, the newly recognized club will have access to all club resources and support.

Club Council meetings are scheduled every other Friday from 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM in-person.

Club Resources

Learn about the services and resources available to you in the Student Resource Guide.

Club Forms

Are you interested in starting a new club? This Club Application for Recognition Form will help you get started!

In order to keep your club's recognition status, each club must fill out a Quarterly Update Form for every quarter they wish to stay active.

Clubs are required to submit their activities/events/meetings to Student Life through the Club Activities Report Form. This form must be submitted two weeks in advance for approval and processing. By submitting this form, clubs can request event spaces, meeting rooms, and info table locations

A variety of meeting and event supplies are available by request for clubs to either use or borrow. These supplies are first come first served, and clubs must fill out the Event Supply Request Form two weeks prior to date needed. We recommend that you check in with the Student Life Advisor or the EAB Clubs Coordinator to see our inventory of supplies that are available.

When requesting funding from the Club Council for an event or program, submit the Club Council Funding Request Form to the Office of Student Life. All funding requests must be consulted with Student Life prior to submission. After approval from Student Life, the form must be submitted via the Funding Request Form above.

For funding requests under $500, please submit this form by 5:00 PM the Wednesday prior to Friday's Club Council meeting. For larger funding requests, this form is due one week prior to the Club Council meeting and must also be endorsed by the club's Advisor.

Clubs are required to submit this Clubs Post-Event Evaluation Form within one week after the event. After completing this form, clubs are asked to report out on how their activity/event went at the next Club Council meeting.

Club Handbook

An advisor can provide critical guidance, structure, accountability, and oversight for a Cascadia club. Many of our students who start and join clubs have big ideas and ambitions, but little experience navigating campus policies and processes, organizing teams and tasks, running meetings, and/or planning programs. The Student Life Advisor supports and oversees all of Cascadia’s clubs, but a faculty/staff advisor who is consistently dedicated to a single club can make a significant difference in the students’ individual learning as well as in the group’s ability to function, to grow, and to continue from quarter to quarter.

Who can be a Club Advisor?

Any Cascadia College employee can serve as a volunteer advisor to a student club with their supervisor’s approval. The Student Life Advisor will confirm the Club’s Advisor interest and availability.

What does it mean to be a Club Advisor?

An effective advisor means building relationships with student leaders and developing a style that matches the club’s needs. It is important to keep in mind the purpose of the club, the types of interests and identities that unite them, and how you can help them to both learn about themselves and educate the campus community through engagement with those interests and identities. Some groups will need more or less attention depending on the group and the time of year. Clarify with the club leaders the time and attention they need from you before you agree to be their advisor. Taking an active role in the club (attending meetings, events, meeting with officers, giving advice) does not mean that you are running the club. The daily operations of the club should remain the responsibility of the officers/club members, not the Club Advisor. The main objective of an advisor is to be available to guide and assist the officers or members in the mission and goals of the club.

What do Club Advisors do?

  • Maintain regular contact with the club
  • Attend weekly club meetings and/or schedule consistent check-ins with the club president to stay informed on club activities as agreed upon with the club.
  • Help the club maintain a contact list and transfer of contacts and club documents from one leader to the next.
  • Help the club meet its mission
  • Take an active role in facilitating the development of group goals.
  • Articulate the connection between club activities and student learning/skill development.
  • Facilitate creative thinking, teamwork, and follow-through among club leaders.
  • Provide guidance and ensure compliance with campus policies
  • Be familiar with the policies and procedures outlined in the Club Handbook.
  • Ensure the club sends a representative to Club Council meetings, turns in required paperwork on time, keeps the Student Life Advisor updated on meeting times and contact information.
  • Help them understand and utilize campus resources available to them.
  • Enforce and report violations of the Student Code of Conduct to the Student Life Advisor.
  • Refer club leaders to Student Life Advisor for room reservations, funding requests, purchasing, contracts, event planning, checking out supplies, etc.
  • Support large-scale and after-hours club programming as needed or find a replacement faculty/staff member. A Club Advisor must be present for the entire duration of the event.
  • Sign all paperwork seeking Club Advisor authorization of expenditures* (Note: Before submitting funding requests, the club must always discuss the funding plan with The Office of Student Life first)
  • If clubs are requesting funding over $500, a club advisor signature is required for the funding request form and must give official approval to support the club’s efforts (applicable to Level 2 clubs only).
  • Accompany club on any off-campus travel (conference, field trips, etc.) sponsored by the College
  • Communicate with Student Life Advisor pre-trip to keep in sync with all travel policies.
  • Drive the van.
  • Keep field trip forms and emergency contact forms on hand during travel.
  • Distribute per diem money to each student.
  • Manage check-in, room assignments, and stay at the hotel with the students.
  • Make sure they are attending the sponsored event and abiding by appropriate conduct.
  • Respond to any emergencies.
  • Any exceptions to the above list must be approved by the Student Life Advisor.
  • Empower students to lead
  • Good advisors always keep students in the driver’s seat (except in a college van).

Resignation of a Club Advisor

If a Club Advisor wishes to resign, they must notify their club and send an email to the Student Life Advisor stating their resignation and effective date.

All resigning Club Advisor must ensure all club materials are updated and given to the club.

Level 2 clubs must indicate a new advisor in order to maintain Level 2 club status. If the club is unable to find a Club Advisor, the club will automatically become a Level 1 club.

How to find a Club Advisor

The Student Life Advisor maintains a list of potential faculty and staff interested in serving as a Club Advisor. You are encouraged to consult with The Office of Student Life to find a Club Advisor who will be a good match. Clubs are more than welcome to reach out to familiar faculty or staff.

Cascadia Club Council has a budget allocated by the Student Activities Fee (S&A Fees) Committee, for clubs to use to host events, activities, and support club projects and initiatives. Clubs may request funding for their activities and events when funding requests are solely for the use and benefit of the Cascadia Students. The Club Council budget comes from the Services & Activities Fee and is subject to limitations based on permissible use of S&A Fees (Killian Outline) and policies set forth by The Office of Student Life.

Club Council funds may be used for event expenses such as food, facility rentals, A/V costs, or a performer/speaker’s fee. Club Council funds may also cover travel costs for field trips and conferences or purchases of specialized supplies/equipment related to your club’s activities. Questions regarding permissible use of Club Council funds should be directed to The Office of Student Life.

Items purchased with Club Funds belong to The Associated Students of Cascadia College (ASCC) and are meant solely for club use. Personal use of these items outside of club activities is not permitted. All club items purchased will be stored in The Office of Student Life and can be checked out for club meetings and activities. If a club’s recognition status is revoked, all club supplies must be returned to The Office of Student Life and will be added to the general supply inventory for use by the ASCC.

How to Request Funding

Step 1: Gather Information

What do you want to spend funding on? Research the items, quantity, prices, taxes, shipping costs, delivery fees, etc. from the company you wish to purchase from. Refer to the “Killian Outline” found on the Student Life Resources website if you have questions about whether you may use S&A fees to purchase your items.

  • Level 1 Clubs may request up to $500 per quarter.
  • Level 2 Clubs may request over $500 per quarter.
Step 2: Meet with The Office of Student Life

Clubs must consult with The Office of Student Life to clarify their plans for the activity/event and develop their proposed budget. Schedule an appointment with the Student Life Advisor or attend Club Drop-In Hours prior to the Club Council Funding Request deadline if you have questions regarding your Funding Request.

Step 3: Submit Club Council Funding Request Form

Submit the funding request form by the deadline indicated on the Funding Request Form. Keep in mind Club Council meetings take place every other week. The earlier the club submits the funding request form, the better the chances of having the form processed and added to the next Club Council meeting for approval. Funding requests submitted after the deadline will not be accepted.

Step 4: Present the Club Council Funding Request Form

After the funding request form has been approved and processed by The Office of Student Life, the club must send a currently enrolled Cascadia student to present their request at the next Club Council meeting for budget approval. The voting members of Club Council will ask questions about the necessity of the funds, then approve or deny the funding request with a simple majority vote.

Step 5: Coordinate Purchasing

After Club Council approves the request, the club is responsible for following up with The Office of Student Life to coordinate purchasing. Clubs can schedule an appointment with the Student Life Advisor or attend Club Drop-In Hours to coordinate purchasing. At this time, clubs can make online purchases or schedule a time to check-out the Student Life credit card to make in-person purchases.

Step 6: Club Post-Event Evaluation & Club Council Report

After the club’s activity/event/purchasing, the club must complete the Club Post-Event Evaluation Form within two weeks after the event and give a debrief report at the next Club Council meeting. This evaluation form allows The Office of Student Life to gain an understanding about how the activity/event went, the amount of money spent, and how the club can improve the event in the future. Failure to submit the Post Evaluation Form may limit the club’s ability to request funding in the future.

Spending Club Money

The club will coordinate in advance all necessary purchases with The Office of Student Life. Club funds must be spent on what was allocated on the Club Council Funding Request form.

There are three ways a club may make purchases:

  • Request temporary use of a Cascadia College credit card
  • Request a purchase order for goods/services from an approved vendor
  • Request a check to be paid to a specified vendor (requires at least two weeks advance notice)

The Club will not receive a check made out to an individual student, a personal reimbursement, or cash.

The Office of Student Life has a Cascadia College department credit card that can be checked out for club purchases. A Purchase Request Form must be submitted to reserve the credit card.

The credit card must be returned the same day it is checked out, along with an itemized receipt showing the items purchased. If a club misuses the credit card, makes purchases not approved by Club Council, or fails to return an itemized receipt, the club will lose access to the credit card and future club funding.

If costs are lower than estimated, the club may not spend the extra money on additional purchases not included in the original request. Any unused club funding allocations will be returned to Club Council. Club Council funding may not be used for fundraising purposes. Clubs cannot request funding to donate to an outside organization or request funding to implement an event which will raise money for an outside organization.

Refer to Food at Meetings and Events Policy handbook page for requesting funds for food purchases. Food purchased with Club Council funding must be served only to currently enrolled Cascadia students.

Reimbursement

The Office of Student Life does not reimburse club members for items purchased with their own money. Clubs are encouraged to follow the purchasing process set forth by The Office of Student Life to make purchases on behalf of their club.

The Office of Student Life strongly discourages reimbursing personal funds spent by an advisor or a student employee for club/program expenditures. To process a reimbursement the items must be pre-approved by both the Club Council and Office of Student Life, and the purchaser must be a current Cascadia College employee; non-student employees cannot be reimbursed. The purchaser may have to wait longer for the reimbursement than they expected, due to processing time by the Finance Office. The preferred method of payment for the college is to use a purchase order with a vendor or use the college credit card to make purchases. If a student or advisor makes an approved reimbursable expenditure, they must provide original receipts in order to be reimbursed.

Role of Club Officers

Defining specific leadership roles and structure within your club is not required, but it can be very helpful for effective operation and decision-making. Club officers must be currently enrolled Cascadia students to hold a leadership role. All club officers must maintain good communication with the Office of Student Life and keep them updated on club activities.

Hosting an Event

Events and activities are some of the most impactful ways to engage with your peers and the Cascadia community. Clubs may host a variety of events and activities such as field trips, movie nights, workshops, guest speakers, etc. Do you already have an idea of something the club wants to host? Check in with the Student Life Advisor to help you brainstorm ideas, offer advice, and assistance. Clubs do not need to have any event planning experience in order to plan an event or activity. The Office of Student Life has an event planning checklist to help manage the planning workload and keep the club on track.

Showing a Movie

If the club wants to show a movie, they must work with The Office of Student Life to obtain a public performance license. A club may not advertise and show a movie on campus without contacting The Office of Student Life to ensure we are complying with copyright law.

Funding

Cascadia Club Council has a budget allocated by the Student Activities Fee (S&A Fees) Committee, for clubs to use to host events, activities, and support club projects and initiatives. Clubs may request funding for their activities and events when funding requests are solely for the use and benefit of the Cascadia Students. The Club Council budget comes from the Services & Activities Fee and is subject to limitations based on permissible use of S&A Fees (Killian Outline) and policies set forth by The Office of Student Life.
