    34 <p>We are requiring that groups provide membership information - both membership numbers and a membership list. This information is important for our understanding of your group and ensuring that groups are meeting our membership standards. We will also share the membership numbers with the funding boards (GSC, UA, and LEF/ARCADE) for groups that apply to those sources. <strong>It is very important you are honest when answering these questions</strong>, even if you are concerned your membership does not meet our standards. We will provide time and support for groups to improve their student participation as needed &mdash; both in terms of number and proportion of students. Groups that are shown to be dishonest in this process, particularly with regards to meeting our standards, <strong>may have funding and space eligibility revoked or be suspended or derecognized</strong>.</p>

(You may be more stringent, based on how your group views or defines membership internally.) You must state the specific definition of membership you are using below. This does not need to be a membership definition that is in your constitution.</p></dd>
