Athens, Ga. – The University of Georgia Center for Student Organizations will hold its annual Fall Activities Fair Sept. 5. from 10:30 a.m.-3 p.m. on the Tate Student Center Plaza and West Lawn. The fair was rescheduled for its orginal Aug. 29 date due to heavy rains.
The fair is designed to encourage students to become involved in campus clubs and organizations.
More than 200 of the university’s 650 registered student organizations will staff booths at the fair in order to provide information and recruit new members. Admission is free, and the fair is open to students, faculty, staff and members of the Athens community.
Joshua Podvin, senior coordinator of the center, said students who are actively involved in campus organizations will find their experiences at UGA to be more successful.
“Studies in the field of student affairs suggest that students who find a balance between their academic pursuits and time spent working with organizations ultimately report higher levels of satisfaction with their college careers,” he explains.
