Getting Involved at UNO
In the Student Organizations and Leadership Programs office, students are our top priority. We believe co-curricular activities are part of the college learning experience; a necessity to develop the student as a whole person. Clubs and organizations are groups formed by students with similar interests (scholarship, community service, career development) and the need for friendship, personal growth, and advancement of their common goals. From social clubs to professional organizations, there are over 100 recognized clubs and organizations on campus in which students can become involved. Student Organizations and Leadership Programs is designed to assist organizations and individual students in their skill development by providing a variety of services which include: how to organize a student group, writing a constitution, meeting planning, time management, programming basics, fundraising, and campus relations. Our office is located in the Milo Bail Student Center, and is part of the Student Affairs Division. We hope you can visit us, or call us at 402.554.2711!
