Connecting Between Classes

With hundreds of clubs and extracurricular organizations, you can explore your interests and yourself in so many ways—and because of our small scale, everything is easy to access. You can work out your sketch comedy ideas, engage in debates, perform in a cappella groups, run for student government, volunteer in the community—the list goes on. If the club or affinity group you’re looking for doesn’t exist, we’ll help you start it.
