Spring 2020 Sober Monitor Trainings
Each session is capped at 20 attendees. All chapters must have at least one representative to attend a training before social events are approved. Past trainings count towards the one representative requirement.
Advisor Agreement Form*: Due Wednesday, February 5, 2020 by 4:30 p.m.
Per the 2020 FSL Policy Handbook:
Fraternities and sororities must retain at least one SIUC faculty or staff member working full-time at the university as an organization advisor.
Organizations will be asked to have their advisors sign an agreement each semester expressing their commitment to serve. These advisors must submit the Advisor Form to the Office of Student Engagement. Organizations shall have thirty (30) business days to secure a new advisor, beginning on the received date of a written resignation of the current advisor, or from the due date of updated registration materials.
While the university requires every RSO to have a faculty/staff advisor, the Office recognizes that a chapter may have more than one advisor. Organizations are encouraged to have multiple advisors to support their operations.
*This form will be presented at the FSL Leadership Retreat.
Chapter Anti-Hazing Compliance Form*: Due Wednesday, February 5, 2020 by 4:30 p.m.
Per the 2020 FSL Policy Handbook:
All SIU fraternities and sororities must file a Chapter Anti-Hazing Compliance Form annually with the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life to certify compliance with state, University, and national organization policies.
Failure to turn in this form before the deadline set by the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life will result in the loss of chapter recognition.
*This form will be presented at the FSL Leadership Retreat.
