Community is built on shared experiences and growth, and we can provide opportunities for both here on campus.

That purpose could be to allow students time to discover new interests, such as at an Open Mic Night, or it could be for them to learn about climate change, such as through a recycled art night. Find what you and other students are passionate about and run with it!
