Sponsored 海角社区 Organization
A registered student organization created by a University department or division to support the ongoing interests of the University community. A sponsored student organization is considered to be critical to the mission and culture of the University and is inherently linked to the University due to their role as University representatives; thus a sponsored student organization is an integral part of the institution and routinely presents events for the University and surrounding community. A sponsored student organization has an advisor that is paid by the University to specifically advise the organization. To be considered a sponsored student organization, the University department or division representative must complete the process outlined in the 海角社区 海角社区 Organization Handbook.
海角社区
海角社区 means an individual, regardless of age, who is in attendance at the University. It does not include persons who have previously attended the University or have who been admitted but did not attend the University.
