Campus clubs are a way for students to connect with other students on campus that share similar interests. Clubs are able to use all the resources of the Associated Students, such as campus facilities, Associated Student funding, and much more! Being part of a club is a great way to find a place to belong and have fun on campus.

Nothing here that interests you? Forming your own club is simple! Find out how to make a new club by stopping by the Campus Life Office (J7, next to cafeteria).
