How to Get Involved
Edgewood College offers a diverse range of activities, student
organizations and clubs to get involved in. The key to getting involved
is asking questions and being willing to step out of your comfort zone.
Here are some tips when you start to get involved:
- Get involved with the things that interest you.
- Start slowly and add more activities only if you have time.
- Maintain a high commitment to academics!
- Talk to others and find out what they are involved in. Start with
your residence hall, academic department and/or OSA for ideas.
- Take the initiative when getting involved.
- Keep in mind the more challenged you are, the more you learn.
- Know that the contacts you make now may help you in the future.
- Stay positive and helpful when entering a new student
organization.
The Value of Involvement
Participating in campus activities is an important part of college
life at Edgewood. The activities and events planned by the various clubs
and organizations supplement your academic life with valuable
experience, fun and friendship. Out-of-classroom programs provide
opportunities for vocational growth, leadership training, community
service and personal development. The people who get involved in student
activities are people like you, so GET INVOLVED! Campus leaders aren’t
born, nor are they members of some exclusive club. You have the
power to be a student leader. The necessary skills are developed through
experience, role modeling and training.
