How can I find out which student organizations are registered?

Student organizations are eligible to register for the Fall Student Organization Showcase beginning in April of 2008. For a list of student organizations that have tables at the Showcase, please check back soon.

Does my student organization have to pay anything to participate?

No. The opportunity to participate in the Student Organization Showcase is free to all registered and recognized student organizations at UNC Charlotte.

When may my student organization set up?

Each student organization may begin setting up its table beginning at 10:30 a.m. The Showcase begins at 11:00 a.m., so please make sure your table is staffed then!

How does my student organization get its table placement?

The Student Organizations team will determine table placement and assignments. Table assignments are not based on date of Showcase registration! Placement and table assignments will be by student organization classification. Your student organization may only use the table assigned and cannot move from that location unless instructed by the Assistant Director of Student Activities for Student Organizations.

*The Student Organization Office reserves the right to have groups share a table, depending on how many groups register and space available. We will let groups know in advance if we need to do this.

What does my student organization need to bring to the Showcase?

Information about your student organization, giveaways, candy, etc. are always helpful in attracting students to your organization. A table and chair will be provided by the Office of Student Activities.

How many people are needed to staff our table?

Tables must be staffed the entire duration of the Showcase. It may be beneficial to have at least two (2) people at your table during the event.

Can I get an electrical outlet or A/V equipment?

Logistical and budgetary requirements restrict us from providing electrical power or A/V equipment for tables during the Showcase. If you wish to bring your own media equipment you may do so, but please note that many portable TV and computer screens can be difficult to view in bright sunlight. Additionally, music can be played at tables only at a volume that does not negatively impact nearby tables.

Can groups or departments, other than student organizations, participate in the Showcase?

No. Only registered and recognized student organizations at UNC Charlotte are eligible to participate in the Showcase. This event is for UNC Charlotte students and to encourage their involvement and participation in campus student organizations and campus life.

Who can answer my other questions?

The Student Organization Showcase is a program of the Office of Student Activities - Student Organizations team. Contact us at 704-687-3181 if you have additional questions.
