1. Applications for Recognition

The Committee reviewed the revised constitutions of the UMBC Comedy Club & the Erickson School Council of Majors and has further requests for clarification. The Committee will contact the leaders of these groups to schedule a meeting to assist them through the review process.

2. Review/Revise a template

The Committee reviewed a letter to be used as a template in response to group requests for recognition where the group would be categorized as a sports club, as these groups must first seek recognition from the Athletics Department.
