The Basics

Successfully manage your student organization with resources and services provided by SPI. 

The SPI Update: Official newsletter for student organizations

The SPI Update is a weekly newsletter providing official communication from K-State and SPI to student organization leadership, including announcements, updates, events, resources  and other important information.

The SPI Update is sent out on a weekly basis to all student organization officers. Officers should read the SPI Update each week and pass along relevant information to the rest of their organization as needed.

Please note: Newsletter recipients are pulled directly from organization groups in OrgCentral. If your group's membership and officer assignments are out-of-date in OrgCentral, they will not receive this communication. 

OrgCentral: K-State's online student organization management platform

Every registered student organization has a website, or portal, created for them in K-State's organization management platform, OrgCentral [1]. Log in with your K-State eID & password to manage your roster, organization description, events, files, forms and more!

Activities Carnival: Semi-annual organization recruitment event

Recruit new members to your organization by hosting a booth at Activities Carnival, hosted by SPI during the first week of class in the fall and spring semesters. Space is limited; sign up early in OrgCentral [1]!

Meeting, practice, and event space

The SPI Conference Room

Registered student organizations may reserve the SPI Conference room, located in 114 K-State Student Union, for meetings and events. Contact studentinvolvement@k-state.edu [7] for more information.

The K-State Student Union

Registered student organizations may reserve rooms and schedule tabling inside the K-State Student Union for free or reduced rates. Contact the K-State Student Union Director's Office [8].

Campus Facilities

Registered student organizations may reserve buildings and grounds spaces with approval by the managing unit. Contact Room Scheduling in the Division of Facilities [9]. 

Locker storage

Registered student organizations can store materials in lockers located in the K-State Student Union. Contact SPI Program Coordinators, Daira Navarette, at dairan [10]@k-state.edu [11] or Grace Ann Thompson, at graceann@k-state.edu [12], to learn more.

Mailboxes

While we encourage RSOs to have mail sent to their sponsoring department's address, all registered student organizations (ASOs & SSOs) may utilize Student Programs and Involvement as their permanent mailing address. This is a great way to keep mail from getting sent to an old apartment address!

Use your organization's name when having mail sent to SPI (see example below). Contact studentinvolvement@k-state.edu [7] to learn more. 

"Organization Name"

Grade checks

Does your organization have a GPA requirement for your members? SPI can help you facilitate grade checks if you meet the required criteria. Contact SPI [13] to learn more.

Pepsi donations

You can request to have free Pepsi products at your campus-wide events by submitting a request form [14] in OrgCentral.
