Organizing and Joining a Club

Whatcom Community College (WCC) grants authority to the Associated Students of Whatcom Community College (ASWCC) to charter and fund student clubs. Students are free to organize and join associations to promote their common interests, provided such clubs are not in conflict with the educational goals of the college, relevant laws and, college regulations. Student chartered clubs shall be open to all students on a non-discriminatory basis.

ASWCC Bylaws Definition of a Club

“A group of Whatcom Community College students collectively organized based on a mutual interest, hobby, or instructional program, whereby the primary outcome of club functions and activities relates to benefiting the common interest of club members, or provides general welfare for the entire student body.” 

Student Learning Outcomes for ASWCC Clubs

The Office of Student Life & Development (OSLD) views participation in clubs at WCC as voluntary and as a privilege. Clubs are granted resources and opportunities that individual students do not have. Club leaders are encouraged to use these resources and opportunities to better the lives of their fellow students and themselves as well as the community as a whole. It is an opportunity for students to join together to:

• Learn and practice leadership skills
• Grow in artistic, technical, and social skills
• Develop friendships
• Contribute to the life of the campus by providing activities and/or services
• Build an environment that inspires and empowers students
• Learn and incorporate the qualities and skills of a confident, inspiring, inclusive, and empowering leader.
• Reflect on club experiences to enhance your growth

Your Club Responsibility

It is important for club officers and advisors to be familiar with the State, College, and OSLD policies and procedures. OSLD provides training that covers the rules and regulations all clubs are required to follow. More importantly, the training provides a built-in network for club officers to make connections with other clubs.

As a club leader, you are responsible for respecting, following, and educating your fellow club members on the policies and procedures by which your club accesses the resources granted to you by the ASWCC. Planning for deadlines, submitting important details, and communicating responsibly with the staff members who support you are all necessary functions of being a student leader.

Rights Granted to Chartered ASWCC Clubs

• Use the name of ASWCC in connection with the club name

• Use and apply for funds as outlined in the ASWCC Financial Guidelines

• Schedule college facilities in accordance with the college procedure through OSLD.

• Post information about the club in accordance with the college posting policy through OSLD. 

Responsibilities of ASWCC Clubs

To maintain active status as an ASWCC Club, you must fulfill the following responsibilities.

• Each quarter, ensure two club members who are currently enrolled WCC students have attended Club Officer Training (at least two current WCC student club members must have completed training at all times. If a club member who attended training stops attending classes at WCC, a new club member who is taking classes needs to attend training.)

• Ensure at least one club member attends and represents the club at all InterClub Council (ICC) meetings. This can be any club member who is a currently enrolled student, it does not have to be a club officer. A student can only represent one club at ICC.

• Submit the Quarterly Report by the deadline to include the following:

  • Information containing quarterly activities sponsored by your club. Clubs must sponsor a minimum of one activity (event/meeting) per month to be considered active**.

  • Sign in sheets of each activity as evidence of active membership.

  • Maintain at least 5 active members regularly attending club meetings and events.

  • Participate in Orca Day June 2023 (Exact date TBA).

Club Membership

Membership in ASWCC Clubs must be available to all WCC students on a non-discriminatory basis. The only exceptions to this are chapters of national associations whose bylaws require limitations on membership. These limits can only be made based on class standing, academic standing, and/or academic major and must be approved by OSLD Professional Staff.

Clubs may choose to include non-WCC guests, so long as it does not limit the participation of Whatcom Students. Guests may not hold leadership/officer roles within the club.

Active and Inactive Status

ASWCC Clubs are only considered active during fall, winter, and spring academic quarters. All ASWCC clubs are considered inactive during summer quarter and summer intersessions.

As appreciation and incentive for fulfilling all your club responsibilities and for completing all end of quarter club paperwork, your club’s remaining club funds from one quarter will rollover to the next quarter to recognize your role in building campus community. Please note the rollover of club funds is not guaranteed, it is only if you fulfill all your club responsibilities and complete all end of quarter paperwork for the club on time. This rollover process only occurs between fall and winter quarters, and between winter and spring quarters. Club funds do not carry over between academic years.

If a club falls into inactive status, their club funds will be frozen and they will be removed from the ASWCC Clubs list until they restore their active status.

If a club becomes inactive because they fail to submit the Quarterly Club Report by the deadline, they can become active again by submitting the Quarterly Club Report late, but will not receive the benefit of their prior quarter funds rolling over to the next quarter.

Summer club activities and requests to be granted at the discretion of the ASWCC Club Team.

Overview

The OSLD has authority over all club funding, financial transactions, and accounts. It is the primary budget authority for club expenditures and has the responsibility of ensuring that club funds are expended and deposited in accordance with the ASWCC Financial Guidelines, WCC policy, and Washington State law and auditing practices. Each club must keep records of income and expenses. The club’s financial officer must work with the ASWCC Club Team to maintain accurate records and process financial transactions in a timely manner. If discrepancies occur between the club’s records and the OSLD’s accounting, they need to be resolved as soon as possible.

Fiscal Guidelines

Never make a purchase without approval from the ASWCC Club Team first. We are unable to reimburse students for any unapproved purchases.

For accounting purposes the first money spent in a club account will be the Quarterly Operating Allocations ($200), not fund-raised money. A club may not have an off-campus bank account. When ASWCC and club fundraised money are deposited into the same account, it is considered “co-mingled”, and falls under all State funding guidelines. All non-perishable club supplies are considered State property. When ordering an item for purchase, delivery details must be worked out with OSLD staff. All club supplies purchased during remote services must be returned to campus when we return. Clubs must use the ASWCC logo on all printed materials and acknowledge the ASWCC verbally at their event to help increase awareness of ASWCC sponsorship of clubs.

Quarterly Allocation (QA) of Club Funds

After a club’s charter is approved, the club will be eligible for a Quarterly Operating Allocation of $200.00 (only if the chartering process is complete by the end of the seventh week of the designated quarter). Each quarter the club maintains its active status it is eligible for an additional $200.00 in operating funds up to a total of $600.00 per academic year. The club may expend quarterly allocated funds for general operating costs. A club that does not turn in a quarterly report by the deadline will not have access to the previous quarter’s funds.  Club funding is only available Fall, Winter, and Spring Quarters. Clubs will not be reimbursed for expenditures incurred prior to officially chartering. Clubs are responsible for tracking their financial expenditures. Consult with the ASWCC Club Team if you have fiscal questions. Remaining Quarterly Operating Allocations at the end of the academic year will revert back to the ASWCC Fund Balance. If there is a negative balance at the end of the year, it will be carried forward to the next fiscal year.

*Please refer to the ASWCC Financial Guidelines and the “Guidelines for Permissible Use of Services and Activities Fees” (Killian Outline).

ASWCC funds (which includes all club funds) cannot be used to

• Influence political campaigns
• Buy tobacco or alcohol
• Buy religious materials
• Purchase firearms
• Give away as a scholarship/donation/gift

OSLD supports and encourages clubs to raise funds or secure sponsorship for programs that support the program or club. It is important that fundraising guidelines are followed because the laws and policies that guide fund-raising activities are governed by the State of Washington. At all times, the college reserves the right to approve or limit any fundraising activity when it is in conjunction with the use of the name and facilities of WCC or ASWCC. Financial records should be kept on file with the office of Student Life and Development. All records will be available to the OSLD staff as well as the Washington State Auditor’s Office upon request. An ASWCC Club Action Form is required prior to conducting fundraising. This form should include the purpose and intent of the fundraiser prior to approval. Also, when doing any fundraising activity, the name of the sponsoring organization and the intended use of the funds must be clearly stated or visible to those contributing. All fund-raised money must be used solely for the specific stated purpose(s). Disposition of remaining fundraised funds at the end of the academic year will be carried over into the club’s account and can be used the next fiscal year as long as the club is chartered again the following year. If the account remains inactive for the next academic year, all funds will return to the ASWCC Student Programs Account.

Fundraised money may be used to:

• Buy club supplies
• Buy club snacks
• Put on a large event
• Give away as prize in recognition for participation: value up to $50

1. Selling items: This type of fund raising shall be advertised to on-campus students and staff only. Example: bake sale
2. Event admissions: Clubs may charge admission to their event through ticket sales.
3. Cash Donations: Clubs may ask for cash donations. As long as they are promptly deposited.
4. Non-Cash Donations/In-Kind Services:

• Clubs may ask for non-cash donations. These would then be used as either prizes or giveaways for a club sponsored event.
• In-kind Services: A club may provide a service free of charge to another group for in exchange for a service they are willing to provide the club. Must be approved by ASWCC Club team in advance.

Club Action Form (CAF)

The Club Action Form (CAF) is how your club can initiate an action or request. Any time your club is looking to make an “action” you should think “Club Action Form.” You can use a CAF to initiate the following requests:

• Request virtual meetings
• Request for your club to host a virtual event
• Request OSLD to use your club funds to make a purchase on your behalf
• A space to fill any other requests

A minimum of 10 business days is required to process Club Action Forms. A Club Officer and the Club Advisor must sign all action forms. If you are turning in a club action form that coincides with a previously submitted form, please note that on the form.

Cashboxes

A cash box may be checked out by the club advisor for up to $50.00 from the Cashier’s Office to make change for a club event. Please have the advisor return the cash box to the Cashier’s office the same day.

Reimbursement

All purchases must be approved in advance. Reimbursements can only be issued to club officers and advisors that provide the original receipts with an itemized list of purchases. The receipt should also clearly show the name and address of the business in English. Use of food stamps is prohibited. All reimbursement occurs in check form.

P-Card (Purchasing Card)

Only full-time WCC Staff or Faculty may check out the OSLD P-Card. After a transaction is made, the advisor must return the P-Card the same day and submit all associated receipts to the OSLD. These purchases must coincide with a previously submitted ASWCC Club Action Form that bears the signature of a club officer.

Payment in Advance

Clubs can request payment in advance by providing an invoice from a business or agency (checks are issued through the Business Office through mail or pick-up). Clubs can also hire performer(s) who are contracted for services. Make an appointment with the ASWCC Club Team to discuss this further.

Any revenue generated by the sale of tickets in advance cannot be used until the event has occurred.

Personal Services Contract

Clubs may want to contract with a speaker or performer. Vendors are required to have a business license and tax ID number. Contracts are used to pay for rendered services. OSLD has contracts to use or a performer may send their own contract. A club officer, member, or advisor may never sign any contract. Please work with the ASWCC Club Team.

A contract is a legal and binding obligation for the College. All contracts must be reviewed and signed by the President of the college or designee. If questions arise about expenditures, the ASWCC Club Team will determine the legitimacy of expenditures.

On-Campus Events

An active, chartered club has the privilege of requesting the use of college facilities and space without being charged a fee. To request space on campus, clubs must mark the “Room Request” on the ASWCC Club Action Form. If a club simply wants a table for information sharing or fundraising, mark the “Table Request” on the form instead.

Requested campus space is in no way guaranteed until approval is confirmed. A member of the ASWCC of Club team will forward the confirmation to both the club officers and club advisor.

The Club Advisor is responsible for the room anytime a club is using a Campus Space.  The Club Officers are responsible for program-related activities including: set-up, tear-down, and clean-up. All reserved spaces need to be reset to their original configuration. 

During summer quarter and intersession periods, all clubs are considered inactive and therefore cannot request campus space. Clubs who are in good standing (by having filled out their Quarterly/End of Year Report and indicating that they will continue into the next active quarter/year) may approach the Club Team about a special request for space in these periods, which will be granted entirely at the discretion of the Director for Student Life and Development in consultation with professional and student staff.

Please Plan Sustainably
Clubs are encouraged to participate in sustainable practices when planning events and conducting club activities. Please ask if you have questions regarding planning sustainably, if you need guidance on sorting landfill, recyclables, and compostables.

Please Note: Anytime Food will be served, a club will need to work with OSLD in advance to adhere to food handling guidelines.
