Student Organizations

 

Student Organizations add to the vibrancy and make the University of Wyoming so special. Whether a group is tabling in the breezeway of the Wyoming Union or participating in a national competition, our 200 student organizations provide a benefit to the UW Community.

Participation in various activities and clubs offered through our office help students build greater networks and deeper friendships, find greater enjoyment and connection at UW, perform better in the classroom, and build skills that make them more marketable in the workforce.

The information below captures the range of services and support that Student Orgs and Entertainment (Union room 012) provides to our student groups. We aim to be the one-stop shop for student organization needs. We do this by hosting workshops and leadership training for student org. officers and members, rent equipment to help make student org experiences more fun and complete, and offer specialized assistance and consultation to help student organizations’ membership and their events be the best they can be.
