We're excited to share that the Student Involvement Awards have been created to recognize and celebrate the amazing achievements of all the involved students on Mizzou's campus. At this event, we'll be honoring many different forms of involvement through various awards. The form opens on December 1st and will close on March 1st.

The Welcome Week Leader (WWL) is a student leadership position created to welcome incoming Mizzou students to the University of Missouri-Columbia. WWLs lead an assigned group of incoming students throughout Welcome Week. Leaders go with their students to various Welcome Week activities, eat meals with their group, and talk to students about all things Mizzou.

Serving as a Welcome Week Leader is a great opportunity for new and experienced leaders. The position gives you a chance to learn about campus, start your path to being a leader at Mizzou, and expand your Mizzou network.

All Registered Student Organizations need to have their advisor listed as an officer on the MU Engage page. If you have any questions regarding this, please each out to us at studentorgs@missouri.edu.

The Organization Resource Group is proud to work with a variety of different organizations at Mizzou. This is why we are looking to spotlight different orgs across campus. If you would like to be featured on Mizzou ORG's Instagram, fill this form out with the proper details to help us create your spotlight. This will be open all year! If you have any questions, email us at studentorgs@missouri.edu.

Building a brand identity for your organization can be difficult but also a ton fun as allows for a lots of creative freedom! Web-based communications platforms are powerful tools designed to connect friends, family and fellow student organizations with one another.
The following guide offers recommendations to Mizzou's Recognized Student Organizations (RSOs) on how to properly build an online presence.

 Websites are also a great way to showcase your registered student organization, sharing important information about your group, resources, and photos from events. MU Engage has easy-to-create webpage templates you may use when following these guidelines.
