Hello Student Clubs,
This post will be a collection of all of the announcements made so far in August 2021. More are to come, new announcements will be made in new posts after this one.
- New Services Coordinator – Tom Tran – joins the UMSU Clubs Administration!
- MULTIPLE RESTRICTIONS AND RED TAPE for In-person Activities for Fall 2021 and Winter 2021 can be found at this page. This page will be updated over time and information is subject to change as we progress through the pandemic.
- Club Funding Applications are now open! Details are in this post.
- Club Renewals are requested to be sped up for administration efficiency, clubs are given a grace period due to COVID-19. If a club requires a club renewal email again, please contact studentclubs@umsu.ca. More details are at this page.
- Related info about Club Renewals:
- We understand that many clubs have struggled during the pandemic hence a grace period was given.
- Clubs require 10 UMSU members (paying union dues) with valid student numbers to be considered renewed / recognized.
- If you are struggling for memberships, note that Club Executives can be considered UMSU members in the application.
- If a club is struggling to renew by January 31, 2022 and does NOT attempt to communicate with studentclubs@umsu.ca about their circumstances, UMSU Clubs Administration will assume this club is inactive which removes their club recognition status.
- Clubs who submit a revised constitution may get rejected due to missing items/articles, if that is the case, you are free to resubmit constitution drafts again once a revision has been made.
- On August 25, 2021; the new Club Executive Portal 1.0 was officially launched. More details are in this post here.
Thank you for your time and attention.
Sincerely,
UMSU Clubs Administration
