HELP! I don’t have editing access to our page.

You are likely not listed as President or Advisor and you’ll need to contact the Office of Student Activities to update the chapter’s information with the University.

HELP! We are listed as Sigma Alpha Pi, not NSLS.

The NSLS is primarily referred to as The National Society of Leadership and Success. We recommend you make the adjustment with the office who manages student organizations, and that should adjust how it is reflected throughout the system.

HELP! This link doesn’t work, and I can’t find NSLS using the search feature.

The chapter may be listed as Sigma Alpha Pi, try searching for that. Or the chapter may have become inactive with the Office of Student Activities. Reach out to them and let them know what you’re trying to accomplish and see how they can help you.
