Exciting Ways to Get Involved

Push your envelope—try out for lead in the spring musical, learn about social justice through community service, or take a hike with the Outing Club. College is a time to explore new interests, new friendships, and career paths. Western New England University is a place where you will feel comfortable testing the waters and trying new things.

At the beginning of the fall semester, freshmen are invited to the Student Involvement Fair to learn about ways to get involved. So don't be shy, jump into campus life and make the most of every moment. Four years go by fast!
