Granting RSO Presidents access to update group membership

How the Student Organizations & Engagement Manager can update RSO groups to allow the Org's President to add or remove members.

  1. Navigate to https://my.cae.wisc.edu and login with our NetID

  2. Click on "Groups" in the menu on the left side of the screen



  3. You should now see a list of groups you are a member of, as well as your role in that group. Click on "Edit" for the group you're trying to update. For this example, we're looking at the so-wiscwind group



  4. You should now see the group editing page. It will list the group Owner (likely to be root), the group Administrator (should be your NetID), the group Manager (The current/previous RSO President) and Org Members (All members who had been added to the group before).



  5. In the Manager field, add the NetID of the Org's new President.  If you have a list of Org Members, you can add their NetIDs to the "Members" field as well.  Then click Update



  6. At this point, the new manager should be able to update group membership using the directions outlined here:
