Student activity planning procedures and forms are available from the office of the dean of student development. The dean must approve all RCC student activities. Groups wishing to host activities must submit an Activity Request Form to the dean of student development at least two weeks prior to the activity. Mini-Grant requests, if needed, must accompany this form. The Student Activities Office can help with the planning and publicizing of the activity. The use of College facilities is granted to recognized organizations with the understanding that reasonable conditions may be im­posed to regulate the time used and the appropriateness of the space, and to insure proper maintenance and security. RCC maintains alcohol-free and smoke-free campuses.

Off-Campus Activities

Student clubs may sponsor activities that take place off campus, such as field trips, participation in conferences, etc. All partici­pants in off-campus activities must complete the Liability Waiver Form prior to the trip, and are reminded that all college policies and guidelines are in effect for the duration of the activity.

Fund-Raising by Students or Student Organizations

All fund-raising in the name of RCC or an approved College student organization must be used to support and advance the mission of the College. Fund-raising activities conducted by recognized College student clubs and organizations require the approval of the dean of student development.  Any individual student, or a student group which is not affiliated with a formally recognized College club or organization, must obtain approval from the dean of student development for any fund-raising effort which uses the name of RCC in its promotion. Approval may be requested by submitting an Activities Request Form, available in the Student Activities office at either campus.

The proceeds of all fund-raising activities must be deposited with the College Business Office within 2 business days of re­ceipt. All expenditures must be supported with original invoices or sales receipts. Requests for payment and/or reimbursement of expenses will follow College procurement guidelines that are available in the Business Office. Fund-raising activities that sup­port the Rappahannock Community College Educational Foundation are governed by the bylaws of the College Board and the RCC Foundation Board.
