Mississippi State Home Page Guidelines and Policy for Student Organizations

Any registered student organization at Mississippi State may be included in Mississippi State's Home Page under Student Organizations. Each student organization will be given access to a home page in which they can provide vital information about their organization when the organization leader has completed a request to the Computing Center [Systems and Networks, 117 Allen] for a home page. This request must be signed by the student organization president, the faculty advisor, and the Director of Student Life. Suggested items to cover on the home page are:

 
  1. Name
  2. Type (service, honorary, etc.)
  3. Purpose statement (1 or 2 sentences, 25 word maximum)
  4. Criteria for membership (if any)
  5. President's name
  6. President's local address
  7. President's local telephone number
  8. Advisor's name
  9. Advisor's campus mail address
  10. Advisor's campus telephone number
  11. Regular meeting time(s), day(s)
  12. Regular meeting place
  13. Cost of membership (dues)
  14. Scheduled special events/activities (registered through Student Activity Coordination form)

Inclusion in the Mississippi State Home Page is a privilege granted contingent upon the organization complying with all University Policies and Regulations. The University reserves the right to remove any student organization from the home page if the university deems this action in the best interest of the institution. Any grievances may be addressed through the Student, Faculty, and Staff Organizations Committee.

Process Required to Create a Home Page for Your Organization

 
  1. Pick up form: "Request for Computing Center File Archive" at the Computing Center [Systems and Networks], 117 Allen Hall.
  2. Complete form and have signed by the president of the student organization.
  3. Have the organization's faculty advisor approve the request.
  4. Submit request to the Director of Student Life, 310 Colvard Union, for approval.
  5. Return the approved form to the Computing Center [Systems and Networks] for authorization to prepare an organizational Home Page.
  6. Web pages of registered campus organizations are considered official Mississippi State University pages and must conform to the university's web usage policy. Among other things, each page must include the university wordmark [such as http://www.msstate.edu/web/marmark4.gif], a link to the university home page, contact information for the page maintainer, and the date of last revision. When the organization's web page is complete, contact University Relations/Bennet George at 325-3442 to be linked in to the Students page.
