Things To Do

The Student Affairs Task Torce is a working group of members of WikiProject Universities dedicated to ensuring that all Student Affairs related articles are of high quality and accuracy. Articles in this Task Force's purview are not actual college and university articles, but rather articles that pertain to: student activities, residence life, admissions, orientation, advising, student development, etc. To indicate that an article falls within the scope of this work group, please add the article to the list of articles below and add student affairs=yes to the corresponding {{WikiProject Universities}} template.

Develop a standard of notability for students' union articles

Goals:

  2. Enforce notability guidelines on these articles by deleting non-notable unions and ensuring notable unions have reliable sources.
  3. Set a precedent for future articles so that we can avoid heated discussions like those in recent memory.
