What does my school need to do to affiliate?
1. RFI Report. The guidelines and regulations to the RFI report can be found under "RFI". Here is the summary of what the RFI Report needs:
On the cover page, there should be a) your university's name, b) the title of the RFI report, c) the current affiliation year (2008-2009), d) the number of pages the report contains (including the cover page), and e) an abstract that acts as a summary of what the report is about.
Also, the report must be a MINIMUM of 5 pages, including the cover page. Each page must also be labeled with a page number, excluding the cover page. Therefore, the numbers should begin on the second page of the report, where the content begins.
If your school has not been affiliated within the last three years with NACURH, then your university is EXEMPT from writing an RFI report. We will, however, need an e-mail from you stating such.
If you have only an RHA or only an NRHH, you still need to compose an RFI report and send it in to complete affiliation.
The RFI report should be sent in in PDF format, not .DOC or .DOCX.
2. Contact sheet. Download it and fill out the corresponding fields. E-mail that along with the RFI report. This can be in any document format.
3. Affiliation Dues. We only accept checks or money orders at this time.
The checks should be made out the NACURH Inc. and be mailed to:
NACURH Information Center
75 Third Avenue
C-3 Level
New York, NY 10003
1. Contact sheet. It is the same file as the above-mentioned form. This one, however, contains information specific to your NRHH Chapter.
2. Constitution. We need the most recent and up-to-date copy of your NRHH Chapter Constitution for review and approval.
3. Members List. The list should contain all members of your NRHH Chapter as of the date you send it in. When you send us these files, please title them with your school's name, and what document it is. For example, "[Insert School Name Here] - RFI Report" or "[Insert School Name Here] - Contact Sheet". Please refrain from using abbreviations, you would be surprised at how many universities share similar initials. All files should be e-mailed and all checks should be physically mailed out to us.
Now, the following applies only to schools with an NRHH Chapter:
1. Contact sheet. It is the same file as the above-mentioned form. This one, however, contains information specific to your NRHH Chapter.
2. Constitution. We need the most recent and up-to-date copy of your NRHH Chapter Constitution for review and approval.
3. Members List. The list should contain all members of your NRHH Chapter as of the date you send it in. When you send us these files, please title them with your school's name, and what document it is. For example, "[Insert School Name Here] - RFI Report" or "[Insert School Name Here] - Contact Sheet". Please refrain from using abbreviations, you would be surprised at how many universities share similar initials. All files should be e-mailed and all checks should be physically mailed out to us.
how much are dues and when do i have to pay them?
Starting with the 2008-2009 affiliation year, dues will be $110 for large schools, $85 for small schools and $35 for associate member schools. A large school is defined as having 1000 or more students living on campus, while small schools have less than 1000 living on campus. These fees are for both RHA and NRHH affiliation as passed at NACURH 2007. The affiliation year lasts from the end of one National Conference to the end of the next. For example, the current affiliation year ends at the close of business of the NACURH 2009 conference in Tulson, Arizona on May 24th, 2009.
how Do Voting Rights WOrk?
A school is granted voting rights at conferences if they are a fully affiliated school in good standing with NACURH. To be in good standing, a school must have paid their dues, submitted an approved NIC report, and have a NACURH debt of less than $10. The NIC representative at a conference must certify a school's good standing by the start of business for a school to have voting rights at that conference. For this reason, we HIGHLY recommend schools send their dues payment and NIC report to the NIC at least two weeks prior to a conference to allow adequate mailing and processing time. Otherwise, please bring these materials directly to the conference, where an NIC representative will be happy to assist you. The NIC representative has the final say in voting rights and affiliation matters and is unable to make exceptions to these guidelines.
What is an NIC Report and how do I write one?
NIC reports are documents written by member schools each year to share something noteworthy from the past year with the rest of the organization. Find out more details on how to write a report here. Reports should be submitted to the NIC on unbound white paper (binding or stapling makes it hard to make copies - paperclips work great!). The mailing address for the NIC is listed in the NIC section below. For questions regarding the creation of NIC reports, please contact the AD of Communications at nic_comm@nacurh.org.
WHat is an RFI and how do I order Files?
The Resource File Index is a massive collection of several thousand documents written by students from member schools over the fifty-year history of NACURH. For convenience, the RFI is divided into several categories. The first set contains all of the reports submitted by member schools each year, broken down by topic area. The second set indexes all of the award bids and other documents that the NIC receives. Both types of documents are available for ordering by registered schools.
The NACURH.org website contains an electronic version of the file index. To order files, you need to have a NACURH.org username and password. Your username is the email address provided to us when your school filled out the online affiliation form. Every NCC, advisor, RHA President, and NRHH President with an email address in our system has their own account. If you want to check what email addresses we have, check your school's information on the affiliation directory page and click your school name. To have your password sent to you, just enter this email on the 'forgot my password' page, and it will be emailed to that address. Once you log in to the site, the file index will include "add to order" links next to every file. Simply click the files you wish to add to your order. To see your current order, remove files, or complete your order, just click the 'edit order/checkout' link on the right and follow the instructions on the screen.
Who Can I talk to if I have any questions?
If you have anymore questions you can either direct them to the MACURH RCC-SP at macurh.sp@gmail.com, head of MACURH affiliations, or the NIC Associate Director of Affilaitions at aff@nacurh.org.
