hey guys today is K day and we're gonna go and ask some students how to
start a student organization and see if we can figure out how to I don't know
whatever was I gonna say
how do I start a student organization
I'm not the person to ask
I don't know Jack I don't the answer to this
I'm not sure yeah
is this a quiz? you start a student org by. Jack I don't know
What? Yeah how do you start a student organization
umm you get like seven or eight people together and umm I don't know the answer to this
you have to get like nine or ten people and you also have to find an adult
I don't know are you like asking officially it's likeI don't know like ten people and look at a
sponsor and you know Constitution yeah
you find at least 10 other students who also like it and then you find someone who will advise you
and then you submit something online to the Student Activities thing how do you
start a student organization yep I say you have to go get you need to have five people on your ebaord you need to have a Constitution and then
you should be all set to go
go through the Student Activities Office with Maranyn Wilcox go talk to her she's located in the MUB
so I just went to the Memorial Union building to try to talk to the student
club organizer Maryann Wilcox however no one is there because students aren't the
only one that get K day off it's the day for everyone to appreciate the Kewennaw
so I did my own research but we gotta look the part to start a student
organization one must first check the existing orgs to see if there is one
with a similar description get ten students and four students to be the
President the Vice President the treasurer or the secretary pick a good
name it has to be tasteful and also say what your club does in two or three
words you need a full-time Michigan Tech employee to advise this student
organization you have to complete the registration forms online you have to
draft a constitution that declares all these things and then schedule an
appointment with Maryann Wilcox not on K day you know what that's a lot of
work and I commend those who do it but I in the interest of time think I just
want to join a club so let's set up a draw from the Hat I don't have my
roommate tell me which club I'm going to join
hey Tim I need you to I need you to pick a I need you to pick a club out of this
hat Ridge roamers okay thank you
Tim Tim Tim Tim Tim Ridge rumors wasn't there I need you to draw another one
Sailing all right thank you Tim wait like I do
Is this the sailing club? This is the sailing club. How do I join the sailing club?
is put your name and your email down right there you sailing experience okay
and so as you can see like this person right here they have no experience but
we take anyone so we actually to train people we show how to actually sail a boat on the better and actually enjoy what we get to do
tomorrow we going to have a cookout down at the super 8 docks we are gonna have some food down there and we're taking out boats
showing people learning about the club that's free for anyone that wants to go down there and try it out and see if they want to join our club
we do some practices on Friday's and Saturdays nice and people that want to learn how to sail that's a perfect
time for them to come on out and it's a little bit more relaxed so you can
actually teach them how to sail and now we get them out the water get them comfortable enough so that if they do want to race they'll have the ability too
what happens later in the year when it's like you know when the waters frozen we sit until it snows actually
we sail until it snows yeah last year we were sailing in the snow yeah we have dry suit so it's
100% safe and we try our best not to tip the boats then because it's just not a
good situation but we do have dry suits that we take too when it gets colder
wow what a cool experience those guys are so nice I encourage you guys to do
the same at k day to just choose a club at random you never know it might be a
great Saturday afternoon alright I'll see you guys next vlog
