Getting involved at GVSU is as easy as stepping outside your door!  Joining a student organization is a great option, but getting involved can be as simple as going to a movie or playing a game in the Kirkhof Center.  Take the plunge and try something new - that’s what college is all about.

Here are some resources to get you started: 
- Do you live on campus?  Talk to your Resident Assistant or Multicultural Assistant about your interests and how you can find things to do.
 
- Do you live off campus?  The Recreation Center and the Kirkhof Center are the two best places to hang out between classes.  Call 331-2020 for building hours.
 
- Go to the Campus Web Calendar to get started. Search for concerts, movies, meetings and other events. 
 
- Call 331-2020 (Kirkhof Information Center) for additional information on movie times and other specific events on campus and in West Michigan.
 
- There are more than 160 student organizations, including Sports Clubs, on campus.  Campus Life Night (held the Tuesday after Labor Day) is the best time to learn about joining a group, but you can get information all year long at the Student Life web site, http://studentlife.gvsu.edu.
 
- If you want to start a new student organization, call the Student Organization Center (SOC) at 331-2345 or visit the SOC on the lower level of the Kirkhof Center.
