Start a New Club!

If you don’t see an organization you’re interested in, you can create your own!  Clubs can be related to your intended major or a special interest. Organizing a club allows you to invite guest speakers, take tours and meet people with similar interests.

To start a club, you only need to find three interested students and fill out some simple paperwork. For more information about any of the clubs or to start a new club, contact Student Affairs.
