The Office of Campus Life and Student Activities is committed to strengthening the student life experience by developing and implementing comprehensive, diverse, and intentional co-curricular and extracurricular activities, initiatives, programs, and services to support all students that align with the mission, vision, and core values of Voorhees University. 

The department comprises Greek Life, Student Clubs and Organizations, the Student Government Association, E-Gaming, the International Student Association, and The Royal Court. 

With 25+ active clubs and organizations, connect with others who share your interests, whether you’re into campus programming, student government, Greek life, choir, community service, e-gaming, let us help you become involved!   

If you cannot find an organization that matches your interest and think it might be a club other students would enjoy, we can help you start a new organization. 

As student leaders of Voorhees University, we encourage our students to fulfill varying and diverse roles on campus and within the community.
