THE STUDENT GROUP RESOURCE HUB: A NEW ERA OF SUPPORT FOR WASHU STUDENT GROUPS

Campus Life has launched a new centralized platform to support student groups: the Student Group Resource Hub, now live on the Campus Life website. This digital hub replaces the former “Student Group Starting Point” on Canvas and marks a significant step forward in streamlining access to essential tools, policies, and guidance for student groups across campus.

The transition from Canvas to the Campus Life website reflects a broader effort to make student group resources more accessible, intuitive, and integrated with other Campus Life services. By housing everything in one place, the Resource Hub eliminates confusion and ensures that student leaders can find what they need, whether they are planning events, managing finances, recruiting members, or navigating university policies.

The Student Group Resource Hub is designed to be a one-stop shop for all things student group-related. Key features include:

Event Planning Tools: Step-by-step guides for reserving spaces, submitting event proposals, and understanding risk management protocols.

Financial Resources: Budget templates, funding request forms, and instructions for accessing group accounts.

Leadership Development: Training modules, leadership tips, and opportunities for skill-building.

Policy & Compliance: Up-to-date information on university policies, group registration requirements, and accountability standards.

Marketing & Outreach: Resources for promoting events, designing flyers, and leveraging social media.

Whether you are a new student starting a group from scratch or a seasoned leader of a long-standing organization, the Resource Hub is built for you. It is especially helpful for executive board members, advisors, and anyone involved in group operations or programming.

You can find the Student Group Resource Hub directly on the Campus Life website. It is updated regularly and designed to grow alongside the needs of the student group community. Navigate to the Campus Life website > Get Involved > Student Groups > Student Group Resource Hub.

Campus Life is committed to continuously improving the student group experience. The launch of the Resource Hub is just one part of a larger strategy to empower student leaders, foster collaboration, and ensure that student organizations thrive at WashU.
