Happy December from the Office of Student Engagement!


Congratulations! We've almost made it through the fall semester! We wish you all the best of luck as we head into finals season and the much needed holiday break. Keep reading for some important end-of-semester updates, fall semester event photos, best practices for event planning and funding, and info to help you prep for the spring semester.

Happy Holidays!


 

End of Semester Reminders

  • The deadline has passed for SGA and Weekend Programming funding requests. These forms will open again in the spring semester - more details to come.
  • The final date to host any club sponsored events or programs is Monday, December 11th (the last day of classes).

Club Leadership Changes

*This applies to officers and moderators*

The end of the semester may be a time of officer changes for clubs as students are returning from study abroad or preparing to leave for study abroad. If your club officer count is affected by study abroad or any other change, please email Erin or the general Bridge email as soon as possible (enmisiorek@loyola.edu or bridge@loyola.edu).

Similarly, if your moderator is going on sabattical or otherwise will be unable to commit to moderator duties for the spring, student officers will need to find a replacement. Moderators, if this applies to you, please let your students know and support them in finding a new moderator. New moderators should fill out the Moderator Verification form, which will prompt us to make the moderator change within your club's Bridge group. You can find the Moderator Verification form here: https://cglink.me/2hL/s72021

As a reminder, all clubs must have at least three student officers and one moderator in order to be considered an active registered student organization. We'd encourage you all to take time to confirm your officers prior to the end of the fall semester to ensure a smooth start to the spring!

Club of the Month - The Greyhound!

The Greyhound is the primary campus and neighborhood news source for the Loyola University Maryland community, covering any and all topics here on-campus and beyond.

The Greyhound team provides a hands-on learning experience for students interested in journalism or other fields relating to the production of print and online media. We meet every Monday at 7:30 in Beatty Hall 114 and our final meeting of the semester will be a holiday party on December 11. New members and prospects are always welcome to join and all experience levels are encouraged! Be sure to check us out on The Bridge, on Instagram (@thegreyhoundnews), and on our website (www.thegreyhound.org) for any updates - feel free to reach out to Editor-In-Chief, Marie Bosslett, with any questions!
