Welcome Back!

It was great to see so many of you at the Involvement Fair and to see so many kick-off meetings last week and this week! 

We hope you have a great 2024-25 year with your RSO, and please remember our team in Student Engagement (studentengagement@du.edu) and the SAIE Business Office (studentcomptroller@du.edu) are here to support you throughout the year.

Successful Involvement Fair - Now What?

What to do with email addresses you collected at Involvement Fair

If you collected email addresses at the Involvement Fair you can easily add these students as members to your organizaiton's roster on CrimsonConnect. This will allow you to send emails out to everyone without having to create a listserv on a different system. 

Please note that CrimsonConnect can only identify a student's account with their @du.edu email address - so if someone provided a non-DU email address, it will create a secondary, guest profile for them in the system - we definitely don't want that. 

This step-by-step shows how to add new members to your group roster. You will notice there are also options to paste a list of email addresses (so the system can search for users to add). 

Don't forget to put your events on CrimsonConnect

Many of you have already put your events into CrimsonConnect! Thank you for doing this. It's a great way for students to see everything that's going on and coming up, so please keep it up!!

Some helpful notes:

• You can have your upcoming events advertised in the Pulse by adding the "Pulse Advertising" tag when you create the event and/or by clicking that you'd like it advertised at the end of the event submission form. Both options alert the Student Engagement team to include your event in the upcoming events list for the week
• If your event is open to Graduate Students as well, please use the "Grad Newsletter Advertising" tag when you create your event
• If you're hosting an event in a space that is NOT reservable in 25-Live, where the form asks for the 25-Live reservation code, please just use that space to provide information about the location you've booked (for example: Event booked in the Ritchie Center - not reservable in 25-Live). That will allow you to continue through the form. 

Important P-Card Reminders

P-Card Checkout Reminders

Please remember that requests to check out a P-Card MUST be made AT LEAST 3 BUSINESS DAYS ahead of the day you plan to spend. This allows the CCOM Welcome Desk and Business Office to review the request and connect with you for clarification if needed prior to check-out. Requests made with fewer days notice may be rejected.

Business days are Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm. 

P-Card Receipt Submissions

Please remember that P-Card receipts are due within 2 Business days of purchase. Receipts should show all of the items purchased, and purchases should be tax exempt. 

If your group has extenuating circumstances that require an extension to the 2-business day policy, please reach out to studentcomptroller@du.edu
