This is late; is that OK?
No, it’s not OK. Please do it earlier next time! If it is a late event registration form, you must consult public safety for late permissions.
If my paperwork is returned to me, what should I do?
Read the comments put on the paperwork by campus leadership and activities or FiCom to understand where the problems may lie. If you still do not understand, consult the person who returned it to you.
Does campus leadership and activities only support FiCom-funded student groups?
No. Only FiCom-funded student groups can hold a mailbox for their correspondence. Other services, such as assistance with organizing events are open to all students, however, and campus leadership and activities is pleased to be able to support individual students with involvement and projects on campus.
Can I use the copier/printer?
Yes, if the material being copied is related to a student group or part of an upcoming event. You can make a limited number of copies provided that you BRING YOUR OWN PAPER. Recycling of paper in good condition is encouraged. Ask a student staff member about copying or printing.
