Executing: "Research the college's existing policies on diversity, inclusion, and non-discrimination.": According
to the provided text snippets, it can be concluded that several colleges have policies in place that empha-
size their commitment to diversity, inclusion, and non-discrimination. Shenandoah University, for instance, ad-
heres to all federal and state civil rights laws and regulations prohibiting discrimination in private institutions of
higher education[1](https://www.su.edu/diversity/shenandoah-universitys-non-discrimination-and-bias-policy-and--
procedures/). They do not discriminate on the basis of various factors such as race, color, religion, sex, pregnancy,
sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, and age[2](https://www.su.edu/diversity/non-discrimination-state-
ments/). Similarly, Mitchell Community College also prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion,
and gender, among others[3](https://www.mitchellcc.edu/human-resources/non-discrimination-statement-and-poli-
cy/). Catawba College is committed to diversity and inclusion and promotes equal employment opportunity for
women, minorities, and others[4](https://catawba.edu/policies/non-discrimination-policy/). Downstate College's n-
on-discrimination and sexual misconduct policy outlines procedures for addressing discrimination and misconduct
within the college community[5](https://www.downstate.edu/about/our-administration/diversity/office-of-diversity-in-
clusion/policies/non-discrimination.html).

Considering the existing policies on diversity, inclusion, and non-discrimination, it is essential to research the specific
guidelines and regulations that each college has in place. Understanding these policies will help in presenting a
case for the establishment of an LGBTQIA+ Society within the college campus. This case can be supported by
highlighting the college's commitment to equal employment and admission opportunities, as well as their promotion
of diversity and inclusion. Additionally, it is crucial to emphasize the college's non-discrimination policies that prohibit
discrimination based on factors such as sexual orientation and gender identity. By showcasing the alignment of the
proposed LGBTQIA+ Society with the college's existing policies, it becomes easier to advocate for its establishment
within the college community.

Adding Task: Research the college's existing policies on diversity, inclusion, and non-discrimination.

Starting task: Identify any existing policies or guidelines that support the establishment of student-run societies or
clubs.
Searching the web for "policies or guidelines for establishment of student-run societies or clubs in college
campuses"...

Executing: "Identify any existing policies or guidelines that support the establishment of student-run societies
or clubs.": According to the provided text snippets, there are several policies and guidelines that support the
establishment of student-run societies or clubs within a college campus.

1. Before a student group can be considered for approval, the student organizers must submit a list of at least
five full-time undergraduate students. This requirement ensures that there is sufficient interest and participation to
sustain the society or club[1](https://www.iona.edu/students/student-handbook/policies-and-procedures-students-
-student-clubs-organizations-and-events).

2. Membership in student organizations is often limited to students, faculty, and staff of the university. This inclusive
approach allows for a diverse range of individuals to join and contribute to the society or club[2](https://www.wku-
.edu/handbook/student_org_polices_guidelines.php).

3. College clubs are recognized as "Registered Student Organizations (RSO)" according to District Policy 3200,
section 3.0. This designation provides official recognition and support for the society or club within the college
community[3](https://www.sdcity.edu/life-at-city/docs/procedures_operating_guidelines.pdf).

4. It is common practice to start recruiting and assessing peers' interest in the proposed society or club. Talking
to friends and peers about the club and gauging their interest level helps in building a strong foundation for the
organization[4](https://www.bestcolleges.com/blog/how-to-start-college-club/).

5. Membership in registered student organizations is typically open to all students, without discrimination based on
race, religion, sex, disability, and other protected characteristics. This promotes inclusivity and diversity within the
society or club[5](https://studenthandbook.sa.ua.edu/student-organization-policies/).

These policies and guidelines provide a strong basis for presenting a case for the establishment of an LGBTQIA+
Society within the college campus. They ensure that there is sufficient interest, inclusivity, and official recognition for
student-run societies or clubs.
