Get Involved, Stay Involved

Are you looking to meet people with common interests, build experience for your resume or enhance communication skills? Join thousands of students involved in about 150 student organizations over campus. The opportunities are endless and the skills you learn can be applied long after you graduate.

National research shows that students who are involved in activities outside of class have better grades, feel more connected to their university/college, and graduate in less time than students who are not involved.

Join us for our annual campus traditions, Mainstreet and Sidestreet. These two campus events are a great way to connect with different student organizations, departments and services on campus to see all the wonderful opportunities waiting for you.
