Student Organization Mailings
The SMC only accepts mass mailings from officially recognized campus
organizations. All student organization mailings are subject to
authorization by the Office of Student Activities & Leadership. In compliance with the Office of Student Activities rules, your event must follow University policies and we will not be allowed to do any advertising of off-campus alcohol events. You can contact the Student Activities office with any questions you may have. Student Organizations are now required
to stuff their own mailings into the student mail boxes. For more details on
this new process please contact the SMC at x5710.
