Registered Student Organization Handbook
Registered Student Organization Handbook 1 Table of Contents Section 1 Introduction and Welcome Section 2 What it means to be a Registered Student Organization Section 3 Organizational Practices, Recruitment, Meetings, and Conflict Section 4 Finances Section 5 Event Planning and Programming Guide Section 6 Policies Section 7 Closing Appendix 1 Campus Resources 2 Section 1: Introduction and Welcome Greetings, As members of the UMass Student Involvement and Activities (SA&I) team, we would like to welcome you to the 2016-2017 academic year. Your involvement in student organizations can play a positive role in your college experience and influence the greater UMass community. Our role is to help you and your organization(s) maximize your potential by building character, engaging in collaboration, and promoting campus-wide and global citizenship. The 2016-2017 Student Organization Handbook is the first step in fulfilling this role. This handbook will provide you and your organization with tools and resources to navigate your way through the complex and ever-changing nature of the University of Massachusetts. The student organizations of today will be able to shape the culture, reputation, and history of the UMass of tomorrow. From cultural showcases to national competitions to local and global service projects, student organizations present an opportunity for students to express passion, reflect on experiences, and understand diverse voices and perspectives. During your time at the University of Massachusetts we hope that you take the opportunity to explore multiple organizations to expand your knowledge and experiences. Along with this handbook, we have created a student organization resource series that includes workshops, videos, and handouts regarding areas of policy knowledge, financial management, organizational management, and community building. -

Arch Book Cover Minimalist
a guidebook to modern architecture in the pioneer valley images, history, and criticism of 25 modern buildings from the pioneer valley of western massachusetts a guidebook to modern architecture in the pioneer valley images, history, and criticism of 25 modern buildings from the pioneer valley of western massachusetts This book sets out to explore how and why particular architectural spaces evoke different feelings of happiness, security, or uneasiness. Why would an architectural journal- ist describe Frank Lloyd Wright’s “Taliesin” as sitting atop the landscape like a “shining brow”? What types of visual mark- ers make Amherst College memorable, and create such a strong sense of place for student and faculty alike? Through class discussion, close readings, and field trips, we have explored a broad range of emotional linkages to architecture: the response of architecture to topography; the distinctions between the sacred, civic, and personal domains; the evolu- tion of culture through the dual modes of style and building type; and the ways in which human beings generate a sense of place. Introduction This architectural guidebook is intended to highlight the many significant and unique buildings within the Pioneer Valley region. The Pioneer Valley is a string of historic settle- ments along the Connecticut River from Springfield in the south to the Vermont border in the north. The northern reach- es of the Pioneer Valley remain rural and tranquil, dappled with small farms and towns defined by typical New England style architecture – functional, tidy homes and commercial buildings surrounding modest town centers. To the south, the cities of Holyoke and Springfield are more industrial and congested. -
