TOP TEN REASONS TO GET INVOLVED
  • It’s fun. A good balance between work and other pursuits will help you to relax, reduce stress, stay healthy and keep up academically.
  • It aids in transition to college by helping you find a niche on campus where you can meet new friends and make a contribution. Involvement contributes to a sense of belonging, community and confidence.
  • It often provides direct academic support and preparation for graduate and professional school.
  • Involvement give you “hands-on” opportunities to experience what you learn in class, test yourself in a safe environment and apply classroom knowledge to real life situations.
  • It helps you build supportive relationships outside of class with students, faculty, staff and community leaders. These networks can really help you persist in your studies when the going gets tough.
  • It provides valuable experience that may lead to a career choice and help you develop skills sought by potential employers.
  • It can help you learn to structure your time and force you to be a better manager of your schedule and competing responsibilities and activities.
  • It gives you opportunities to carry on campus traditions and join student efforts to address global issues, serve the community, educate the campus and pursue artistic or recreational interests. Involvement can promote lifelong interests that enrich your life for years to come.
  • It demonstrates the importance of teamwork and communication in problem-solving and conflict resolution, and help you develop leadership, organization and life skills. These skills typically aren’t learned in the classroom but are essential in preparing for your professional life.
  • It provides a small group to call home on a large campus, as well as interaction with people from different backgrounds than yourself and exposure to new ideas and cultures.
