DLR #4 - Mass Funding

To all UDC organizations, please mark your calendars for the Mass Funding DLR. 

Mass Funding is due Friday, November 13, 11:59 PM.

WHERE: Ford Auditorium
WHEN: Saturday, October 24th, 1-4 PM


If possible, please have your treasurers attend this DLR!

DLR Attendance Policy: 
UDC Exec (udc-exec@case.edu) must be made aware of any absences 48 hours in advance so we can excuse them. Excused absences means documentation of prior events scheduled that you cannot miss.

If you miss one without excusal given prior, you have the opportunity to make it up by volunteering within the community. 

  • Two representatives will have to volunteer and send in documentation/photos stating that they have done some sort of volunteering that UDC exec has approved, so we can excuse the absence. 

Only one absence can be excused through volunteering. After that, there are financial consequences. Failure to communicate with UDC Exec about an absence or seek an excusal, including after the event, will result in the applicable financial consequences.

DLR Make-up Attendance is due November 4th, 11:59 PM.
See the document linked below for more details.

The DLR representative does not have to be a member of your organization's executive board!

What is a DLR?
The Diversity Leaders’ Roundtables (DLRs) foster collaboration in UDC, recognize new member organizations, and vote on relevant issues. They allow UDC to stay connected with its members and facilitate easier communication within the organization.

Constitution Updates
