Student Clubs

Who do employers and four-year colleges look for? They look for well-rounded students whose interests reach beyond the classroom, for people who are involved in their campus and community. Join a club that parallels your major, piques your interest, helps you understand how governance works! A list of campus clubs and their special interests is included below.

Attend various activities offered throughout the academic year, such as workshops, seminars, demonstrations, and health fairs. Take part in intercollegiate sports or intramurals.
