2. Sponsored Student Organizations: Faculty Advising
Information Expectations Rules Resources
The purpose of this module is to provide you with information that is
critical to your success as an advisor and
to the success of your student organization.
3. Information
Oregon State University recognizes that sponsored student organizations are inherently linked to
the University because of their role in enhancing education, representing OSU and/or presenting
events that are considered an integral part of the institution. In order to best support the learning
of student leaders in our community, we have adopted a philosophical approach of partnership
and collaboration with individual students and student organizations as “facilitators” in the
involvement experience. As “facilitators,” faculty advisors work with administrators, faculty and staff to
support student organization members and leaders in making intelligent, fair and reasonable
choices within the boundaries established by state, federal and local laws, university rules/policy,
and the mission of the sponsoring unit. At Oregon State University, the Faulty Advisor serves as
the primary “facilitator” to Sponsored Student Organizations.
4. Student Organization Philosophy
Student organizations provide living laboratories in which leadership skills are gained and honed. They give
students an opportunity to pursue their interests, to succeed, to fail and most importantly, to grow.
Classrooms don’t always provide the opportunity for responsible and accountable involvement that
engagement with student organizations provides. Leadership is not merely a collection of skills; leaders must
forge their style through experiences that allow them to build and apply organizational and individual
capacities for the public good. Student organizations are one of the few opportunities students have to gain
hands-on experience while working towards the public good.
Oregon State University recognizes the contributions of Student Organizations in creating a compelling
learning environment that prepares students to live in a multi-cultural society and work in a global
community. The University recognizes that all students should have access to form and join organizations of
their own choosing to enhance their educational experience, support holistic personal development and
retention.
In order to facilitate the development of these opportunities for involvement, the following values serve as a compass in determining the
classification and support for student organizations at OSU.
• Alignment - As advisors, administrators, educators, students and student organizations we are aligned with the core mission and values of
Oregon State University.
• Access - We believe that a student’s ability to form and join organizations of their own choosing is a high priority. As a result, we are committed
to having clear & visible, student- friendly resources and processes that facilitate easy access. This is inclusive of, but not limited to a mentoring
relationship, advising, assistance with recruitment, and access to meeting and activity space.
• Engagement - We recognize the value of co-curricular and academic involvement throughout the student experience and are dedicated to
facilitating partnerships with students that support shared accountability, responsibility and learning. Through engagement with student
organizations, students develop leadership and organizational skills which enhance knowledge, holistic growth, community development and
student retention.
• Health & Community - We support clubs and organizations that enhance our community by providing opportunities for leadership, learning,
diversity, and social responsibility. The health of the community will be one of purposeful, open, safe, just and celebrative outcomes that allow
students and the campus to flourish in meeting institutional goals.

12. Sponsored Student Organizations
A Sponsored Student Organization (SSO) is a student organization, composed of 100%
Oregon State University students, that operates under the direct guidance of a
sponsoring unit and is in the closest relationship with the University.
Sponsored status for a student organization is a statement of recognition by Oregon
State University that the student organization is a key element in helping the University
realize its mission. Sponsorship from a University unit indicates two things:
• That the University views the organization, through its efforts, as worthwhile and
vital, and therefore commits itself to providing support for the organization and its
endeavors.
• While recognizing the importance of student leadership, the organization represents
the University; therefore, a high level of accountability from the organization is
required.
!
13. Sponsored Student Organizations
A University unit that sponsors a student organization is committed to supporting that
organization’s mission and activities. These organizations are inherently linked to the
University because of their role in enhancing education, representing OSU and/or
presenting events that are considered an integral part of the institution. As a result of this
relationship, these organizations may receive added benefits from the sponsoring unit and
are held to the same level of institutional accountability as the sponsoring unit is held.
As a result of this relationship, SSOs must be approved by an executive officer, dean, director
or designee of a University Department. Sponsoring units must provide a professional staff
member to act as the Faculty Advisor to the SSO. In addition to formal advising, department
support may take any of the following forms: financial support, administrative, equipment
and/or University space allocation, etc.
The activities, events and operations of these organizations are classified as official
University business and considered to involve the same level of responsibility and duty of
care because of their scope and perceived association with, and representation of, the
University. SSOs have access to certain University-controlled benefits and resources and are
accountable to the Sponsoring Unit for legal compliance, fiscal responsibility, risk
management and adherence to University policies, procedures and guidelines.
14. Recognition Process
In order to be recognized as a Sponsored Student Organization, the organization must be in formal
relationship with an OSU sponsoring unit and:
Complete the registration process on an annual basis that includes:
• Submit an annual Organization Information Form.

16. Standard of Care
As a member of any student organization at the University, you are expected to
maintain alignment with the University mission and exemplify the principles of
honesty, integrity, and respect of diversity. As a member of the OSU community, you
are expected to uphold University policies, procedures and guidelines, always acting
in good faith when conducting your organizational business. Further, you are
expected not to misrepresent the mission, purpose or goals of your organization nor
the influence (direction and control) by non-members on your organization or its
activities and events. By upholding the OSU Student Conduct Regulations -
http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/pages/rules/oars_500/oar_576/576_015.html -

19. OSU Student Conduct and Community Standards
The OSU Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards serves the OSU community by
providing a restorative justice model to engage students and student organizations that have
been identified as being in violation of the OSU Student Conduct Code.
Choosing to join the Oregon State University community obligates each member to a code of
responsible behavior. Individuals and Student Organizations are expected to observe the
policies, rules, and requirements of Oregon State University as well as laws of municipalities
and counties, the State of Oregon, the United States of America and, when in another
country, that country.
Advisors and student leaders are responsible for reporting violations of the conduct code.
A “Student Organization” includes any group
of students living or acting together, or An “Organization Violation" is a violation of
electing officers, or assessing dues or fees for the Student Conduct Code committed by a

26. Violation of the Student Conduct Code by Student
Organizations.
When members of a Student Organization act together in a way that violates the Student
Conduct Code, the Student Organization is expected to hold itself accountable.
(1) When a potential Organization Violation of the Student Conduct Code occurs, SCCS may review the incident to
determine the appropriate process for resolution. Generally, the University will expect a Student Organization to hold
itself accountable for the acts of its members when those acts are related to the Student Organization’s activities.
(a) The Student Organization or its governing body will notify SCCS and keep it informed at all stages of the process.
(b) The University, through SCCS, reserves the right to take immediate jurisdiction at its discretion. The Student
Organization or governing body may still hold its members accountable in the situation, but must do so in conjunction
with SCCS.
(2) If a person affected by the alleged violation is not satisfied with the action taken by the Student Organization, that
person may file a grievance with the appropriate governing body or, if none exists, with SCCS.
(3) If, in the judgment of the Director of SCCS, sufficient action is not taken in a timely manner by the Student
Organization, the case will be reviewed for possible action by SCCS.
(4) In deciding whether the Student Organization is responsible for the violation, the University will consider whether one
or more of the following factors are present:
(a) The violation arises out of an event sponsored, organized, financed, or endorsed by the Student Organization;
(b) The violation occurs on premises owned or controlled by the Student Organization;
(c) The leadership of the Student Organization had knowledge, or should have had knowledge, of the likelihood that a
violation would occur and failed to take corrective action; or
(d) A pattern of individual violations is found to have existed without proper and
appropriate group control, remedy, or sanction.
.
27. Violation of the Student Conduct Code by
Student Organizations.
Jurisdiction
The Student Conduct Code shall apply to a Student’s or Student Organization’s conduct that
occurs on University premises, at University sponsored or affiliated activities regardless of
location, and to off campus conduct that adversely affects the University community or the
pursuit of University objectives. These standards shall apply to a Student’s conduct even if the
Student withdraws from school while a disciplinary matter is pending. Examples of behavior
that adversely impacts the University community may include but are not limited to physical or
sexual assault, rape, hazing, harassment, stalking, furnishing alcohol to minors, distribution of
drugs or illegal substances, or illegal weapons use. The University has sole discretion to
determine what conduct occurring off campus adversely impacts the University community

severe sanctions such as deferred suspension, suspension, and expulsion. Violations that affect
the health, safety and well being of the community are deemed the most severe and may
