Start a New Organization

At Hood, it is not only possible, but absolutely encouraged to start your own organization. It’s a simple process and a great plan if you cannot find the ideal organization you’ve been picturing as something perfect for you to join and get involved in.

In order to begin a new club, first, you will need to complete the "Starting a New Organization" form, which includes a signature sheet of potential charter members and proposed constitution.  

Once submitted, the SGA Student Life Committee and the Office of Student Engagement will receive and review your request.  They may reach out to you to discuss any necessary edits for your constitution.  

After edits and approvals, you will have the opportunity to present your club and constitution to the senate for approval. If approved as an organization in Senate, the club will move to a vote in the executive board for approval.

If you need assistance starting a new student organizations, please email studentengagement@hood.edu.
