Involvement

College is more than just earning a degree—it’s about making yourself stand out. When you graduate, you'll have the same degree as many of your peers, but the experiences you gain outside the classroom are what truly set you apart.

Getting involved on campus is the perfect way to build your unique story and discover more about yourself. Whether it’s joining a club, taking on a leadership role, volunteering or participating in campus events, these experiences not only help you grow but also help develop skills and make connections that can shape your future. Now is the time to dive in, discover your passions and make yourself interesting. The opportunities are endless—make the most of them!

Clubs and Organizations There are more than 45 CALS-affiliated student organizations. You can get to know many of them each fall during the CALS Kickoff, or you can choose to explore them each on your own.

Ambassadors are selected to represent the college for CALS tours, events, donors and more.

CALS Leadership Institute is a three-semester program to develop employability skills.
