Students, balloons, and a stage during a lively event

Welcome Advisors!

Thank you for dedicating your time to a student organization. Whether your group focuses on social gatherings, academic enrichment, artistic performances, cultural dialogue, community service, athletic participation, or another other college experience, the student body depends on student organizations for a complete undergraduate experience. Only CWRU faculty or staff may serve as an advisor to our student organizations so you are a wonderful unique and special group of individuals.
