Student Organizations

Club participation in college sets the stage for a lifetime of leaning in, reaching out and building connections that bridge barriers, builds skill-sets, and enhances the college experience.

Clubs and organizations with service, political, academic, social, athletic and cultural objectives offer students the opportunity to participate in areas of specific interest. Representatives from each campus club comprise the Inter-Club Council and serve as a recommending subsidiary to the Associated Student Government Executive Board.
