The University College admits that participation in the activities of student groups is an important aspect of the student experience in ReCAS. The University environment encourages the formation of different student groups. These groups may be defined in a variety of ways, according to:

• A shared program of study,
• A commitment to service,
• A common activity, philosophy or background, or
• A particular perspective.

When approving (or disapproving) a group’s application for registration, the University College takes into account the group’s stated purposes, goals, activities, membership criteria, and other attributes. The University College also recognizes its obligation to support the activities and regulate the conduct of student groups, for the benefit of the groups themselves and the entire community. When a student group, through registration, enters into a formal relationship with the University College, responsibilities and benefits result for both. Student Groups are registered and supported through the Office of the Dean of Students.
