STUDENT ACTIVITIES The Office of Student Activities (OSA) enhances the campus community through advising, creating experiences, and leadership education that empowers students to discover their passions, enhance their academic and co-curricular pursuits, and inspires them to respect themselves and others.

How does my student learn about clubs/ organizations and events on campus? Check out The Compass, CNU’s online home for campus involvement. The Compass is the place to learn about and join active student organizations, see a calendar of upcoming campus events, and communicate with campus leaders and staff. Students should start

• 200-plus student organizations

here to determine if there are any student organizations

• 20 fraternities and sororities

that might interest them. The Compass is also a great

• Over 5,000 events each year

place to find information about on-campus events and announcements.

There are many ways for your student to become involved and connected at CNU. Whether through participating in programs and events hosted by one of our anchor organizations, making their "mark through membership in one of our 200-plus recognized student organizations, joining our thriving fraternity and sorority community, or developing their leadership skills by attending workshops and programs hosted by the OSA. Located on the third floor of the David Student Union (DSU) in Suite 330, the OSA has resources available for student organization use. Students can also meet with staff members who will answer questions, help them start an organization or get them connected with a currently existing group on campus.

What if my student has an interest and there isn’t already a group for it? If your student has an interest that is not represented by one of our over 200 student organizations currently operating we encourage and will support them in starting their own organization. We work with them to identify ways to find others with the same interests and navigate the process of becoming a registered student organization at CNU, including how to run an organization.
