Category: Club Registration and Recognition
The University requires recognized clubs and student organizations to have a UP faculty or staff advisor. Faculty/staff advisors are the most important resource a club has. Advisors provide advice, create a learning atmosphere, encourage new program ideas, help develop and plan and they are available for consultation and mediation. They promote the purpose and activities of your group to other faculty/staff as well as assist students in developing relationships with faculty/staff members.
Advisors can help your club or organization become self-sufficient by giving advice when called upon or when s/he feels it is appropriate. The advisor is concerned with the function of the entire club as well as with the individual group members.
