Why should I join/create a group?

People join groups for all different reasons: me new people, pursue new interests, and further their involvement in academic studies . Most importantly joining student groups allow people studying at PSU to have a fun place to meet new people and work with friends who share the same interests as them. If PSU doesn’t currently offer a student group that tickles your fancy, start a new group, who knows, their might be others like you wanting to form an exciting, never been-done-before club? You’ll never know until you try!

Advising for SOC Groups

When you register as a student group you are automatically assigned to an advisor through SALP. Your advisor is determined by the type of group you register as (for example, there is one advisor for all of the multicultural groups on campus).Your advisor can be very helpful, especially when first starting out. They are able to answer most questions that you have about processes and resources on campus. Below is the list of SOC advisors. If you have questions feel free to email your advisor. If you need to meet directly with your advisor directly, schedule an appointment in the SALP office SMSU 119. Also click here to see helpful tips from advisors
