Low needs groups are identified as student organizations that operate with a maximum annual budget of $10,000 and organize a maximum of 4 programs and events each year. The Assistant Director will consult with groups to help bring their ideas and vision relating to the group's strategic goals and mission to fruition. The Assistant Director will also support the administrative components of student organizations' programming with the use of the online Project Management tool, Monday.com.

  • New Student Organization Recognition Management: The Assistant Director will facilitate and manage the new student organization recognition process in conjunction with the Student Government Association (SGA) and other campus partners.
