Campus Life

W&L offers students the opportunity to join hundreds of student organizations and attend speakers, concerts, galas, and other events throughout the year, so campus life is never dull. Student Activities and Programs supports student clubs and organizations by providing resources to get started, event planning, and marketing ideas for a successful event. We encourage students to explore interests, get involved, and take on leadership roles.

The following are a few examples of student organizations on campus doing cool things:
