College Organizations
Many academic departments have academically-related student organizations and discipline based honorary societies. Students from each academic organization departmental association work together on a college student council for each of the seven colleges. These groups promote interaction between faculty and students, and sponsor speakers, seminars, social gatherings and other activities. Staff from Student Life and Development play a key role in coordinating major events sponsored by these groups.
