Student Activities Council
Organization Review System
Submission Guidelines
Organizations will be reviewed based on submissions, attendance, membership and recruitment, events, promotion and publicity, community involvement and, if relevant to the organization, office space (effective September 2009). It is through these categories that organizations can prosper and its members can become active, informed citizens, as well as improve necessary skills including leadership, critical thinking, decision making, problem solving, lifestyle, financial and communication.
The End of Semester Report will be used to evaluate how effectively and efficiently an organization has been using the resources provided to them to achieve their mission and goals, as well as plan activities and events for their current and prospective members. How an organization builds awareness of itself and interacts with the community, Pace and beyond, will impact the evaluation of all organizations.
To ensure consistency with organization planning, the deadline for submitting the Evaluation Report will always be on the Monday after the last day of events for that semester. The report will be due to SDACA by 5pm on Monday, and officers are responsible for making sure it is stamped by a SDACA staff member when turned in and a copy put in the SGA mailbox for review. Reports received later than the time and date specified above will not be accepted and the organization will not receive any SAC points for that semester.
The evaluation will be used in the determination of office spaces, penalties and rewards on budgets and events and awards determined throughout the semester. Organizations may ask for feedback and guidance through the semester and for upcoming semesters based on their evaluations from their SDACA advisors and Organizational Council chairperson.
All SAC Semester Reports must be typed, orderly and carefully organized. It is recommended that you place your report in a binder or have the report bound so that the order in which it is presented is the order in which it is kept when the SAC committee reviews your report. Report that are not typed, orderly and carefully organized will not be read and will be regarded as a report that was not submitted.
Some helpful hints in creating the evaluation report are to:

a. Start early! The report is an evaluation of the organization’s semester activities, as a whole. By starting early, you eliminate the risk of forgetting an important achievement from earlier in the semester. Late submissions will also be penalized, and you want to ensure a better rating for the future of your organization.
b. Delegate responsibilities to individuals within the organization. This builds teamwork within your organization and adds more value to each point. One person is not putting the entire report together and being overwhelmed with the responsibility.
c. If you are not sure about an item, be sure to ask. Some helpful resources to ask for help include: an experienced officer in your organization, your SDACA advisor and the Organizational Council chairperson.
d. Make sure all supporting documentation is included with the submission of your report. If your organization has supplemental information, or if your club must include flyers, emails, notifications and other items please place them right behind the corresponding form in the order of event related to it as was placed on the form so that Student Activities Council members reviewing your report do not need to guess or fix the report.
e. Proofread for grammatical errors and typos. The presentation of your report is as important as what is contained within it.
The report is due no later than the Monday after the last event of the semester at
the SDACA OFFICE no later than 5pm.

Student Activities Council
Organization Review System
Summary of Categories
Submissions
Organizations are expected to hand all required paperwork in on time. Organizations will be penalized
for late submissions of paperwork, as well as not handing in paperwork at all. This includes but is not
limited to the annual membership roster, constitutions, semester budgets, Educational Media requests
and forms, contracts, space forms and each semester’s Student Activities Council evaluation report.
Attendance
SAF Funded Organizations are required to attend the following events and will be penalized if they do
not attend:
- All scheduled Organizational Council meetings - SDACA trainings for all officers - BAC training - Leadership Conference - Relevant events announced for the semester by SDACA and SGA.

members of organizations can stay actively involved in the organizations initiatives and achievements,
allowing for the organization to thrive.

6
Events
All events funded by SAF will be evaluated through the Semester Event Evaluations. Event Evaluations
will allow for organizations to receive rewards based on the events that they hold. Each organization’s
events will be evaluated differently based on the type of club they fall under: Cultural, Religious, Greek,
Professional, Political, Common Interest and New Organization. They will be evaluated based on the
budget used, the purpose of the event, marketing used and whether the purpose of the event was met.
Alignment to Mission and Goals
All organizations will be asked to measure how they are actively trying to achieve their objectives
through a clear set of goals that are in line to the organization’s mission, as set forth in their
constitution. The goals will be laid out based on a S.M.A.R.T. framework. They need to be Specific,
Measurable, Attainable, Results‐oriented and Time‐specific. Organizations will be asked to consider the
unmet goals for the next semester and how they work to better achieve them.
Promotion and Publicity
The evaluation of organizations will take into account promotion and publicity for both, the organization
as a whole and their events for the semester. Organizations are expected to be actively utilizing the
resources they are given to increase student awareness of their organization and its objectives.
While promotion for events is based on the type of event and the budget approved, organizations are
expected to be active in the marketing of their events and activities, including weekly meetings which
are open to the entire Pace community, and to be utilizing their budget effectively and efficiently to
promote the events.
Community Involvement
Organizations will be rewarded through their involvement with both, the Pace and outside communities,
to ensure they are taking advantage of opportunities to promote their organizations as well as working
towards helping build community at Pace.

Organizations will be rewarded by coming to and/or helping at University held events such as Pace
Preview Day, Open House, Orientation, Alumni events, Leadership Conference, and Community
Outreach Community Service events. Involvement will also include collaborations with departments or
individual faculty/staff members on campus for events, and for new initiatives with communities outside
of Pace.
Office Space
Organizations will be evaluated on how efficient they use their current office spaces: is the office space
used as a space to do organizational work, hang out, do homework, or store items? Are office hours
offered? Is the office maintained regularly?
