Get Your Club Involved!

There are many ways to get your student organization involved around campus. Becoming involved in campus-wide events brings your group public exposure to the UMD campus community, making you more well-known, and drawing new student membership to your club. Having your name out there may also make any fundraisers you conduct more successful because students, faculty, and staff will be familiar with who you are and the purpose of your club – making them more likely to spend money in support of the organization. Simply contact us in Student Activities if you are interested in being involved in any of the below events!

Bulldog Bash & Fall Student Activities Fair : Move-In Weekend-the First Week of School

If your willing to do some work, your club can get some excellent exposure and recruiting skills starting the very first week of school. From helping students move into the dorms, hosting events, and setting up a table at the student involvement fair to recruit new students and pass out information, your club can really get its name out there. The student activities fair has limited space so watch for sign up info at the end of every school year & summer – and don’t be late!

Winter/Spring Student Activities Fair : January 2009

This will debut for the first time in January 2009. It will be similar to the Fall Activities Fair where you can set up a table, pass out information, and recruit new students. We hope it will help drive the January “blahs” away! Again, space will be limited to watch for sign-up info!

Out Cold Week:  February

We look to the student organizations to supply this week with fun events geared towards students and/or the whole UMD community.  Highlighted by the Annual Frozen Yeti Film Festival sponsored by the Kirby Program Board. 

 

UMD Student Awards : February-April

UMD Student Awards are campus-wide awards that are selected by the students of UMD. Nominations for Outstanding faculty, staff, academic advisor, student organization advisor, student organization of the year, and various categories for student leaders can be submitted by anyone on campus. We are always looking for students to serve on the various selection committees to pick the winners of these awards. An awards banquet honoring all winners and nominees is held annually in April.
