Need help starting a Herp Society

seastrid Mar 17, 2011 12:18 AM

I attend college at Purdue North Central in Westville, Indiana and am studying Ecology. I want to start a Herp Club at the school, but I need some direction. The school already has so many questions for me and I'm not prepared. They want to know what would be our goals, and objectives, they want bylaws, and I don't even have anyone else on board yet. Which is really becoming a problem, because they are making it hard to recruit not allowing the normal resources students have to network since it involves a club. HELP!!!!!

Back when I attended UW Stevens Point, I was a member of their herpetology society for a number of terms, where they had established bylaws, mission statement, and member guidelines. These links may help you out as an example:
