Across the nation, our student organizations are struggling and student governments are struggling. Many seem to be on their last leg, past their prime, etc. Organizations don’t have the activism and sacrifice of students from the 60’s and 70’s, drive of the 80’s, the urgency of the 90’s or money and participation of organizations from the early 2000’s. We seek to see if it’s a generational issue, leadership issue or are other factors the problem. We examine 6 sinister problems that are costing student organizations funding, stability, sustainability, etc. We’re often taught how to be good leaders, but never how to run good organizations, revive them or save them from peril.
We’ll learn how to get diversity, inclusion, representation, funding, respect and cooperation so that we can take our organizations to levels not even imagined. We not only discuss how to grow a large membership, and obtain a large budget, but how to make a deep impact on your campus.
We often think our problems are financial, but it's really creativity. We often think It's leadership, it's followership. We often think it's roster size, it's utilization. We think it's our events, it's our purpose. It's not the problem, it's how we go about solving them
