Become an Advisor


The Office of Campus Activities is recruiting full-time faculty and staff members to serve as advisors to one of the more than 300 student organizations at Bowling Green State University.

There are many benefits associated with becoming an advisor to a student organization. Here are some:

  • Satisfaction of seeing and helping students learn and develop new skills
  • Watching a group come together to share common interests and work toward common goals and an understanding of differences
  • Developing a personal relationship with students
  • Furthering personal goals or interests by choosing to work with an organization that reflect one's interests
  • Sharing one's knowledge with others

While serving as an organization advisor, one can be as involved as one would like it to be and their schedule permits. There are, however, some specific responsibilities of an advisor such as:

  • Attend meetings
  • Provide guidance to the officers
  • Receive all financial statements and oversee all financial transactions of the organization
  • Ensure that officers have a 2.00 minimum GPA
  • Provide consultation concerning membership selection procedures
  • Review and sign the annual report/registration packet

If you have any questions about serving as an organization advisor, call Kelly Jo Larsen at 419-372-2343, email klarsen@bgsu.edu or you may submit the following form.
