Overview
A campus-wide server run by a student union or a group of student volunteers. It is organised the way a campus is: by faculty, by hall and by what students need this week. Six faculty channels (#engineering, #sciences, #arts-and-humanities, #business-school, #health-sciences, #law-school) and four hall channels are each visible only to members who picked that role, so a chemistry lab question never lands in front of the law students and the north hall fire alarm stays a north hall problem. CAMPUS HELP answers the questions that recur every term: #registration-and-timetables, #financial-aid-and-fees, #it-and-library-help and #international-students. RIDES AND ROOMMATES is a slowmoded board for lifts home, #roommate-search, #sublets-and-housing and a #textbook-exchange. CLUBS BOARD has a #clubs-directory forum with one thread per society, a #club-recruitment channel that only Club Leaders post in, and a hidden lounge for the leaders. #whats-on-campus is a read-only calendar posted by Club Leaders and the union. STUDY adds a #study-groups forum, #exam-season and #past-papers-and-notes. Verification is a Verified Student role granted from a short form; applicants and prospective students can read orientation and ask in #campus-chat until then. Alumni keep a small category of their own for mentoring, and the union office is hidden.
When to use it
Freshers arrive with a hundred questions that were answered last year, clubs spam the one general channel with recruitment posts, and nobody can find a lift home at the end of term. This layout gives every faculty and hall a room only its own students see, keeps recurring campus questions in searchable channels, puts club recruitment behind a role so it stops drowning the chat, and gives rides, roommates and sublets a slowmoded board of their own.
What makes it different
- Faculty and hall channels are visible only to members holding that self-assigned role.
- Campus help is split into the questions that repeat every term, so answers are searchable.
- Rides, roommates, sublets and textbooks share a slowmoded board instead of the general chat.
- Club recruitment is a channel only Club Leaders can post in, and the clubs directory is a forum.
- Verified Student unlocks the boards and study category; applicants can still read orientation and chat.
Recommended Vetox setup
Self-Roles
Post Self-Roles panels in #faculty-and-hall-roles for the six faculties, four halls and year groups so the gated channels fill themselves.
Applications
Take a student-email or ID form in #student-verification and grant Verified Student from the submission; the union reviews it in #verification-desk.
Reminders
Schedule Reminders in #exam-season for registration deadlines and in #whats-on-campus for the weekly events listing.
Auto-Mod
Enable Auto-Mod link and mention rules on #rides-board, #roommate-search and #sublets-and-housing, the channels scammers target at the start of term.
Temp Voice
Point Temp Voice at Study Room 1 so a fourth study group gets a room during exams without adding permanent channels.
Questions
How does student verification work?
A member fills in the form in #student-verification with their student email or a photo of their ID. The union reviews it in the hidden #verification-desk and grants Verified Student, which opens the boards, the study category and the faculty and hall channels.
Can prospective students join?
Yes. They hold the Applicant role and can read orientation and #whats-on-campus and post in #campus-chat and #ask-campus. Everything that needs a verified student stays hidden until they enrol.
We have more than six faculties. What do I change?
Add a role and a channel per faculty and copy the overwrites from an existing pair: hidden from everyone, visible to the faculty role and to Moderator. Add the role to the Self-Roles panel and you are done.
Why is there an alumni category?
Graduates who stay are the mentoring supply for #mentorship-offers and the people who answer #part-time-jobs with a real contact. Keeping them in a small category means they stay without cluttering the student channels.
Common mistakes
- Leaving every faculty channel visible to everyone, which makes six copies of #campus-chat and nobody posts the lab question they had.
- Letting anyone post in #club-recruitment; within a week every society is posting daily and students mute the channel.
Consider instead
- Local Club Association You are running a single society or club rather than the whole campus.
