interests beyond the classroom. All students are encouraged to participate, and there is a club or organization for every area of interest. Participation in student organizations aids the academic, professional, and personal development of our students and fosters a sense of connection and belonging to the greater community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Student Organization Resource Guide was created to inform student organizations and advisors about the guidelines, policies, and procedures regarding student organization recognition, hosting events, travel, and general operations. In collaboration with several campus partners, the Center for Student Involvement adheres to best practices concerning safety and security, institutional and organizational reputation, and values that align with our organizational mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is the hope of the Center for Student Involvement that all student organizations feel a sense of responsibility to influence, lead, and challenge their fellow organization members to create positive change that aligns with the 91爆料\u2019s mission. As students and advisors work diligently to help navigate their organization toward excellence, the Center for Student Involvement is available as a resource.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The guide offers comprehensive support, including resources for leadership development, event planning, risk management, and financial management. By providing these tools and resources, we aim to empower student organizations to operate efficiently and effectively. Whether you are starting a new organization or sustaining an existing one, the Center for Student Involvement is dedicated to ensuring you have the support needed to succeed and make a meaningful impact within the university community. We encourage all student organizations to utilize this guide fully and reach out for any additional assistance or guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>James Psalidas<\/strong>, Director of Student Involvement<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Olivia Dufour<\/strong>, Coordinator for Student Organizations<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-3 kt-pane11202_f4bf23-41\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">General Information<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mission<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The mission of the 91爆料\u2019s Center for Student Involvement is to provide engaging programming on campus to support and develop students.

Your student organization should plan events and activities with accessibility in mind. For more information on this or for general guidance on accessibility, contact the Student Involvement Team at <a href=\"mailto:um.getinvolved@maine.edu\">um.getinvolved@maine.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fundamental goal is to facilitate the participation of people with disabilities in a timely and effective manner. While the answer to every question and situation may not be simple, the key is to remain respectful, responsive, and flexible. Choosing a physically accessible location Whenever possible, you should hold your event in a wheelchair accessible building. Locating your event in a wheelchair accessible building will facilitate the participation of wheelchair users and people with other mobility impairments as well. If you cannot hold your event in one of the accessible buildings, you should try to locate your event in a space in which physical barriers are kept to a minimum.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In general, you must ensure that people with disabilities are able to attend and participate in your<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>event with the same access as people without disabilities. There is no one method of accommodating individuals with disabilities, and the accommodation process is individualized. The Student Accessibility Services is a resource to assist in identifying reasonable accommodations for student participants. Student Accessibility Services works with faculty, staff, and community members with disabilities. Oftentimes, accommodation implementation does not require significant financial resources. However, timeliness in identifying needs and advance planning will be required. Please plan events with access in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are encouraged to communicate as much as possible with participants and event presenters prior to the event.

As such, they should be treated with respect and membership practices within your organization should be grounded in prioritizing the care and consideration of all members. Membership practices such as organization commitment requirements (i.e., number of events members must attend), expectation of members, etc. should all be clearly presented in your organization&#8217;s Constitution, available to members before they join, and accessible to them throughout their time with the organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Student club and organization members must be registered students in a 91爆料 undergraduate or graduate course.

We strongly discourage removing members without first attempting an educational solution. We strongly encourage organizations to include the member removal process in their bylaws to legitimize the process.\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you are contemplating removal, your advisor is a valuable resource to you and can assist the organization in considering alternatives to removal.

Student organizations are expected to uphold non-discrimination practices in their activities, recruitment, and organization operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The 91爆料 System does not discriminate on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, transgender status, gender expression, national origin, citizenship status, age, disability, genetic information, or veterans status in employment, education, and all other programs and activities. This principle applies to all organization practices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you have any questions about the non-discrimination policies at the 91爆料, please contact the Director of Equal Opportunity at <a href=\"mailto:equal.opportunity@maine.edu\">equal.opportunity@maine.edu<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Alcohol and Drug Policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Alcohol is only allowed at events that have been approved through the event registration process.&nbsp; All non-approved events involving alcohol will be referred to the University Student Conduct process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>University policy recognizes that substance abuse is a complex problem that is not easily resolved solely by personal effort and may require professional assistance and\/or treatment. Accordingly, each campus and University Services have designated an individual to assist employees and students who seek referral for assistance with a substance-abuse problem. Students, faculty, and staff members with substance-abuse problems are encouraged to take advantage of available diagnostic, referral, counseling, and prevention services. However, employees and students availing themselves of these services will not be granted special privileges and exemptions from standard personnel practices applicable to job performance requirements and from standard academic and student conduct requirements. The University will not excuse acts of misconduct committed by employees and students whose judgment is impaired due to substance abuse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alcoholic Beverages&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sale, possession, and use of alcohol on campuses of the 91爆料 System must comply with the laws of the state of Maine and with local campus regulations and procedures. The acquisition, possession, transportation, and consumption of alcohol by anyone under 21 years of age is prohibited by University policy. Alcohol may be possessed or consumed on University property only by persons 21 years of age or older in their rooms or in appropriately licensed and\/or approved campus facilities. Persons are expected to assume responsibility for their own behavior while drinking and must understand that being under the influence of alcohol in no way lessens their accountability to the University community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Illegal Drugs&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The possession, use, manufacture, dispensing or distribution of illegal drugs (heroin, cocaine, cannabis, LSD, steroids, etc.) is prohibited at any time on University property and as part of any University activities. \u201cIllegal drugs\u201d does not mean the use of drugs under a valid prescription. Employees and students known to use, possess, manufacture, dispense, or distribute illegal drugs are liable to public law-enforcement actions and University disciplinary actions.

All areas of the University shall be designed and operated in a manner that enables students, employees, applicants, and members of the general public who have a disability to participate or benefit on an equal basis. The University\u2019s policy includes, but is not limited to, access to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>academic programs, including traditional and distance education programs;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>employment, cultural, recreational, and residential programs;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>information and communication systems, including hardware and software, equipment, and facilities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If a student requests a reasonable accommodation of a student organization they must comply given the University policies.&nbsp; For assistance with a reasonable accommodation, a student organization or the student requesting the accommodation should contact The Center for Student Involvement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Policy for the Safety and Protection of Minors<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 91爆料 is committed to providing a safe environment for everyone on its campuses and in its programs. This includes minors who participate in programs and activities both on and off campus.&nbsp; Members of the 91爆料 community who interact with minors in any official capacity are expected to foster and maintain an appropriate and secure environment for minors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a student organization is expecting minors at a meeting or event (mentoring programs, collaboration with local school districts, etc.) this should be noted on the Event Management Form. Any event with minors present requires an in person meeting to ensure proper precautions are taken to protect both the student organization and the minors present at the event or meeting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Free Speech and Expression at 91爆料<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 91爆料 is committed to free and open inquiry and expression in all matters. It guarantees all members of the university community the broadest possible latitude to speak, write, listen, challenge and learn. With the exception of certain limitations (time, place, manner) on that freedom which are necessary to the functioning of the university, the 91爆料 fully respects and supports the freedom of all members of the university community to discuss, debate, write, assemble and\/or demonstrate regarding any issue or problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ideas of members of the university community will frequently and naturally conflict, but it is not the appropriate role of the University to shield individuals from opinions and ideas that could be unwelcomed, disagreeable, or even acutely or deeply offensive. Although civility and mutual respect are greatly valued and all community members should take responsibility for maintaining a climate of mutual&nbsp; respect, concerns about civility and mutual respect can never be used as a justification for closing off the discussion of thoughts and ideas no matter how offensive or disagreeable those ideas and thoughts might be to some members of the community. It is for individual members of the university community, not for the university as an institution, to respond to such ideas for themselves, and to take action not by seeking to suppress speech, but to openly and vigorously contest the ideas they oppose with more speech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information visit the 91爆料 System Free Speech Policy by click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maine.edu\/board-of-trustees\/policy-manual\/section-212\/\">here<\/a> or the Office of Community Standards, Rights, and Responsibilities webpage for free speech <a href=\"https:\/\/umaine.edu\/communitystandards\/freedom-of-speech\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Food Policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Homemade food may be served at events and activities, and sold through bake sales, though the Student Organization takes on the liability in doing so.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is recommended that student organizations only serve food that is prepackaged or obtained through Dining Services for their individual event. If food is not individually packaged, one member of the organization putting on the bake sale should be gloved and responsible for handing food to the buyer as it is purchased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the safety of all who may consume the food, allergens should be avoided or clearly labeled.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Food Trucks<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>All food truck reservations should be run through the Center for Student Involvement and the event management process.

Copyrighted material that will be screened must be secured by renting the film from a distributor, utilizing a copy of the film with the public performance rights, or obtaining in writing the public performance rights from the copyright holder.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Center for Student Involvement has worked with SWANK Motion Pictures in the past, but there are many reputable companies to work with to purchase the rights to play commercial films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Student Organization Disciplinary Process<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Student Organizations who are alleged to have violated any University policy or procedure will be referred to the 91爆料 Student Conduct Process.&nbsp; For an organization, the process may follow the same general guideline as the general student conduct process (though exceptions may be made depending on the circumstances of the alleged violation(s)).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any instance of alleged hazing or other misconduct requiring a full investigation will be referred to the 91爆料 Student Conduct Process and the organization under scrutiny will receive direct communication with an assigned investigator or other appropriate staff.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information please refer to the <a href=\"https:\/\/umaine.edu\/communitystandards\/student-conduct-process\/\">Student Conduct Process<\/a> on the Office of Community Standards, Rights, and Responsibilities website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Travel Policy <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 91爆料 is the principal research and graduate institution of the State of Maine. It offers a comprehensive program of graduate and undergraduate study that is enriched by the resources of its university setting. The University recognizes that in order to engage in a full collegiate experience, students can and do benefit from opportunities that exist beyond the campus. The institution believes that conferences, matches, games, institutes, competitions, and certain social and cultural activities add to the student experience at The 91爆料 and to their engagement in the richness of the culture of the State of Maine. It is in support of these beliefs that this policy was conceived. <em>Travel is defined as leaving the 91爆料 campus, outside of the general Bangor area.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the full, comprehensive student travel policy, reference the <a href=\"https:\/\/umaine.edu\/studentlife\/student-handbook\/\">91爆料 Student Handbook<\/a> to ensure compliance with the most updated travel policies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-17 kt-pane11202_1b3773-d0\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">Resources<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Student Involvement Fair<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Center for Student Involvement puts on the Student Involvement Fair the first Wednesday of the Fall Semester.

It is the responsibility of the student organization to spend these funds as the organization sees fit within the confines of the University, State, and Federal law.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Obtaining an Employee Identification Number (EIN) for your Student Organization<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Many banks and outside vendors require student organizations to have an EIN for their organization. Below is information you need to know about an EIN, and how to obtain an EIN for your organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is a Federal Tax ID Number\/EIN #?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Federal Tax ID number (also known as the Employer Identification Number of EIN) is a number used to identify a business or other organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why do I need a Federal Tax ID Number?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your organization is going to do a fundraiser with an outside business like a restaurant, you need a tax ID number to receive money or in-kind donations. Additionally, obtaining an EIN helps to ensure the IRS will not make any of an organization\u2019s members personally responsible for taxes on revenue that the organization has earned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can we just use the 91爆料\u2019s EIN?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Affiliation with the University does not imply tax-exempt status and student organizations are not allowed to use the 91爆料 EIN number or non-profit status. Student organizations are independent entities responsible for their own finances and establishing and maintaining their tax status with the IRS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is the Federal Tax ID Number the same as being a non-profit organization?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No. Student organizations are not Federally Tax-Exempt Non-profit Organizations. Only the federal government can confer charitable status on an organization. Filing for charitable status (501(c)(3) status) is a lengthy legal procedure that commits the organization to the rigorous annual reporting procedures required by the IRS. Because of the annual reporting requirements and the frequent turnover of student leadership, individual student organizations should not file for charitable status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do I get a Federal Tax ID Number?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The easiest way to apply is online through the IRS website. You will be walked through the application and receive your number immediately. You can also apply by mail or over the phone.

There are several banks in the Orono area that are accustomed to working with student organizations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Account Set Up<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It is highly recommended that student organizations have multiple signers on accounts. Typically, a student organization will have at a minimum the President, Treasurer and Advisor on the account. Having the advisor on the account allows at least one consistent signer for easier transfer of other names over time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>University Credit Union Specific Information<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Many student organizations utilize the University Credit Union, as a branch is located in the Memorial Union.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Fundraising<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Opportunities for fundraising are sometimes sent to Student Involvement Staff, which are then shared out via the officer email list. Remember to keep your officers up to date any time you have an election or change of officers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Student organizations are encouraged to host fundraisers regularly. Listed below are a few fundraisers many student organizations have had success with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Bake Sales: <\/em>Student organizations can request tabling in the Memorial Union in order to put on Bake Sales. Please see Bake Sale guidelines in the Food Policy section.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Restaurant Fundraisers: <\/em>Ensure you have your EIN ready to go! Student organizations can reach out to area restaurants to set up a night where a percentage of profits are donated to the organization.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sport-based Tournaments: <\/em>Student organizations can host sport based tournaments as fundraisers, but most work with the Center for Student Involvement and the Recreation Center staff for space reservations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lockers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Student organizations can work with Student Involvement and UMSG, Inc. to apply and secure additional storage for their organization.&nbsp;Reach out to um.getinvolved@maine.edu with questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mailboxes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All student government recognized student organizations are assigned a mailbox in the Wade Center in the Memorial Union. An organizational mailbox ensures consistent delivery of mail and packages, since it does not change from year-to-year as individual officer\u2019s addresses would. It also allows preferred vendors that organizations may work with regularly to more easily maintain accurate contact information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The format for a mailing address for an organization with a Wade Center mailbox is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><em>Organization Name<\/em><br>5748 Memorial Union, Room 151<br>Orono, Maine 04469<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>91爆料 Police Department and Security<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 91爆料 Police Department is a full-service police department staffed by state-certified police officers and support personnel 24hrs a day, 365 days a year.
