CLUBS AND SERVICES Want to get involved? Make new friends, volunteer for a worthy cause, debate, dance, write, sing or act? Then getting involved through clubs and services if for you! Student involvement in the clubs, services and publications under SSMU make up a large part of student life on campus. SSMU currently oversees over 200 active clubs and there are always more on the way! There isn’t enough space in this agenda to print all the descriptions of our clubs, but here is a quick run down on the ‘need-to-knows’ about the kinds of clubs we have and how to get involved. Types of Clubs Our clubs cover all sorts of categories ranging from athletic to charitable organizations and everything inbetween. Below you will find some of our club categories.

Activities Night Activities Night is your one-stop opportunity to see all of the clubs canvassing new members at the same time. Activities Night takes place on September 14 and 15 from 4pm to 9pm in the Shatner Building. All floors of the building will be set up with tables, sectioning the clubs into areas of interest like the categories previously listed. You will have the chance to speak to club executives and sign up for mailing lists. The best part about Activities Night? It’s Free! (There is also a winter activities night that takes place in early January - date to be announced.)
