SORF Board

SORF is a funding board comprised of 8 elected students (at least 2 of which are graduate/professional status) and 3 appointed staff, for a total of 11 voting members. Students are elected by the student body and serve a 1-year term. Elections are held every spring and administered by the Student Elections Commission. Faculty/Staff members are appointed to one-year terms by the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and are frequently re-appointed for a second and third year. Administrative support including the secretary, program advisor, and account technician is provided by Student Programs and Activities Registered Organizations Office in the Illini Union. The Board’s Chair and Vice-Chair are student members elected by the eleven voting members.

The SORF Board is responsible for allocating monetary resources, generated by the Student Organization Resource Fee, to Student Legal Services and Tenant Union. The remaining funds are available for the Board to allocate to RSO’s in support of their programs and activities. The Board proposes their funding recommendations to the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs for final approval.
