Programs

Awards

Our student groups on campus do amazing things such as host programs around education and entertainment, are involved in bettering the community through community service and much more. Each year, the department seeks to acknowledge the accomplishments of our student groups by honoring them with awards and recognition. From general registered student organizations to fraternities and sororities, and club sports, our goal is to ensure the efforts of these student groups don’t go unnoticed.

G.O.L.D. Leader Series

The Growing Organizational Leadership Development (G.O.L.D.) Series is a leadership development initiative created for leaders of registered student organizations to help provide them with the tools they need to be successful. It is designed to build leadership capacity in our student organization leaders and is a “choose your own leadership adventure” wherein participants choose the activities to attend (from the list provided) to earn credit. Through the attendance of campus workshops and events, students have the ability to earn a certificate in leadership and a gold graduation honor cord.

Leadership development plays a vital role for students and their organizations. Our staff provides programming that is specific to holistically developing student leaders.

Get A Clue

This is an annual involvement fair that is usually held in the ECU Mall area located in the center of campus. This is a collaborative event of 3 functional areas.

This event is one that attracts thousands of students each year!
