Involvement Fair Participation
All registered student organizations in good standing with the university, Student Involvement & Activities and any other relevant governing entities (Sports Clubs, GPSA, Fraternity & Sorority Life, etc.) are invited to participate in the Involvement Fair.
Involvement fairs are typically held during the first month of the spring and fall semesters. Each participating organization is provided with table space and chairs for 1or 2 members to staff the table. Each fair usually consists of about 150-200 organizations providing opportunities for students to get involved on campus and within the local community through membership recruitment or event marketing. Registration for the Involvement Fairs occurs through the 51ԹϺ Involvement Center a few weeks prior to each fair. More information is provided within the registration form and mandatory organizations registration sessions.
