Connections Beyond Classes

At the University of West Alabama, there are over 60 student clubs and organizations, providing opportunities for students of every interest. A college education starts in the classroom, but the opportunities you seek out in your spare time can balance your academics, serve as a means for connecting with other students, provide leadership development and opportunities, encourage civic engagement and enhance your college experience.

Some organizations are organized to meet the interest of a few students, while others are established to fulfill a long-term role with the university. Each organization falls into one of the following categories.

Fraternities & Sororities

Membership in a fraternity or sorority offers students a unique opportunity to have a balanced college life with a focus on academic excellence, brotherhood/sisterhood, leadership development, service and responsible social interaction. Greek life also gives students the opportunity to make lasting friendships with those who have similar ideals, passions and common purposes.

Student Government Association

The University of West Alabama Student Government Association strives to actively represent the needs and concerns of the UWA student body by committing to excel in leadership, citizenship and fostering unity among its students. The mission of the SGA is to facilitate a better relationship and understanding between the administration, faculty, staff and student body.

Academic, Departmental & Professional Clubs & Organizations

These clubs are designed to help students expand their college experiences based on their educational and professional pursuits and passions.

Special Interest Clubs & Organizations

This encompasses a wide range of campus-related activities, such as the Equality Alliance, which exists to preserve and defend the rights and privileges of equality, the Chinese Student Association, Black Student Union, Inspired Expressions’ (IE) networking group and more.
