Policy for Club Dismissal

The FIT Student Government Association (FIT SGA) Student Council, which grants recognition to clubs, also has the power to withdraw recognition. Should any club violate FIT SGA's club rules and policies as outlined in the FIT SGA Constitution, or violate FIT's Code of Student Conduct, the club will be subject to the following procedure:

  • First violation: A verbal warning will be issued through the club advisor to the club president by the director of Student Life and the FIT SGA first vice president.
  • Second violation: A written warning placing the club on six months probation will be issued through the club advisor to the club president by the director of Student Life and the FIT SGA first vice president. The club in question should use this probationary period to evaluate and correct the problem(s) resulting in their probationary status. If the probationary period is completed without incident, the club will remain in good standing with FIT SGA.
  • Third violation: Should a third violation occur during the probationary period all club activities will be suspended and all funds will be frozen pending a hearing before the Judicial Council of the Student Affairs Committee.

At the hearing, the Judicial Council of the Student Affairs Committee will make a recommendation to the Student Council as to what action should be taken.
