Blackboard and Web Site Account Information
Web Site Account Information
Student Activities and Leadership Development has been in conversations with the University webmaster to develop procedures and guidelines for student groups to have Web access. A new set of procedures and guidelines had to be established because administration and maintenance of the student group server is now with UCit.
Here is the procedure for student groups to gain access to their old website (or to establish a new account for those who do not have a Web presence):
1) Renew your Registered Student Group status with Student Activities and Leadership Development for the 2007-08 academic year. Registration forms are located in the Student Activities and Leadership Development office, 455 Steger Student Life Center (near Starbucks).
2) Submit a Web Registration Form annually or whenever there is a new webmaster designated by the student organization. Please read the attachment and have the respective officers complete the form (including your faculty advisor). Please note that your UC e-mail address is required (also known as your 6-plus-2 username).
3) Accounts will be established when your student group's Registration Form and Web Registration Form are received by Student Activities and Leadership Development.
Blackboard Account Access for Student Organizations
Requests for student organizations on Blackboard must be submitted to Letitia Karuppan (letitia . karuppan @ uc.edu), Program Coordinator for Leadership Development and Student Organizations. All requests must include the following information:
1) The full name and email address of the person who will manage the student organization (the manager assumes responsibility for the content and integrity of the organization site);
2) A description of how the organization will help communications, education and/or research within the student organization; and
3) The total number of members that will be enrolled in the organization.
Approval for a student organization on Blackboard is based on the same criteria required for approval of any official university student organization. It must be registered in that office to receive the full rights and privileges of a campus based club or organization. Please review the Blackboard Organizations Operating Guidelines that can be found in FAQ#15 on our Blackboard Support Site at http://blackboard.uc.edu/support/.
If your organization is approved by Student Activities and Leadership Development, you will receive an email confirmation with instructions on how to proceed with having your organization created on Blackboard.
NOTE: Student organizations at Cleremont College and Raymond Walters College must show proof of registration with the college before account creation for a website and/or Blackboard is authorized.
