Student Organizations
At Clarkson University, developing leadership skills is an important part of a student’s overall college experience and can lead you towards personal and academic success. The Office of Student Organizations works with a variety of student-run organizations to offer educational and social opportunities aimed at enhancing campus life.
Expanding a student's learning outside of the classroom is as easy as becoming a member of a the Clarkson University Student Association (CUSA); exploring membership in more than 100 students organizations, including 13 fraternities and sororities; working with the surrounding community; or attending leadership trainings and workshops. Benefits include strengthening appreciation for diversity, developing responsible decision-making skills, establishing professional contacts, and forming lasting friendships.
