E. The College expects students to conduct themselves as mature adults, to dress and conduct social events in good taste, and reserves the right at any time to discipline students whose conduct is deemed against College regulations. Violation of this policy can result in disciplinary action. This will aid in preventing misunderstandings as the year progresses. The agreed-upon expectations should be written and distributed so that all participants are aware that they are accountable for the guidelines. The advisor serves as a resource person and an overseer of administrative details.
Advisors have organizational and community knowledge.
Often they have been advisors of one club for quite a while and can share experiences that have occurred over the years. An advisor s professional and business associates, as well as friends in the local community are additional resources for clubs. With the assistance of a club advisor, outside resources can be used as speakers and sources of financial and general support. This can be of great benefit to clubs, especially when dealing with detail-oriented tasks such as purchasing items and traveling to conferences. Most advisors will be familiar with parliamentary procedures, Robert s Rules of Order, minutes, and bookkeeping and can share this knowledge with others in the club.
