The annual Saint Norbert Involvement Fair has now come and gone! On Tuesday, Sept. 9, the students of Saint Norbert College gathered on the Campus Center lawn to showcase their school pride through the many unique groups and clubs on campus. From Greek Life to spiritual groups to independently run clubs, there was a lot to be excited about.
Despite the sun beating down and the wind trying to blow over posters, the student body of SNC kept its energy high.
The Involvement Fair is a great way for newer students to get a taste of student life at SNC. It’s also an opportunity for groups to promote themselves and recruit new members. This year, the energy was buzzing with excitement, especially with Greek Life recruitment just around the corner. It seems like there’s a place for just about anyone here!

SNC has clubs for every kind of student. There are athletic clubs for rock climbing, adventure, golf, ice skating and even fishing! There are support groups for fellow language learners, such as the French and Spanish clubs. Students can engage in theater opportunities, crochet clubs, creative writing and much, much more.
Members of the Ballroom Dancing Club even showed their passion by displaying some of their graceful dancing skills on the sidewalk!
Students who want to give back to the community can do so through clubs like Wishmakers, Best Buddies and Dance Marathon.
The colorful stands belonging to the Black Student Union, LGBTQ+ Spectrum Alliance and Latine Student Union highlighted the wonderful diversity that SNC has to offer. These groups offer support and community for the growing number of minority students on campus.

If students are interested in pursuing more for their major, the student body has groups dedicated to just that! They can join chemistry, psychology, computer science, art or biology clubs that strive to connect students in similar majors and provide support throughout their time at SNC.
SNC has many wonderful student-run clubs indeed, but what about non-students?
In addition to promoting clubs, the Involvement Fair allows its staff to set up a stand as well. Ruth’s Marketplace distributed samples of cookies as they announced new hiring positions. Some of the Norbertines helped their fellow brothers and sisters from Frassati and Chiara, men and women groups devoted to navigating college life through faith and camaraderie. The Involvement Fair even gave outside organizations, such as Discover Green Bay, a chance to tell students about the bustling life in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It is a wonderful thing for students who are from out of state – or even from across the state – and may not know the area.
In the upcoming weeks, there is much to look forward to. Students have fallen into the rhythm of school and sports, new students have settled in, and all those interested are approaching recruitment for Greek and Social Life. As the leaves turn color and the temperature drops, student life will only get more exciting.
