More than 100 student groups on campus are registered with the Student Government Association, which is the official student governing body at Penn State Behrend. These groups include academic organizations, student life groups, sports and outdoor clubs, arts and recreational groups, political action groups and fraternities and sororities. These organizations provide students with a myriad of involvement opportunities and the chance to interact with others who share a similar interest.
This web page has been created to provide the tools that members and officers of organizations need to have a successfully run student group. Check back often for new announcements and updates!

Leadership Development Programs
The Office of Student Activities has developed a comprehensive web site
that offers students, faculty, and staff on-line information and resources to
leadership programs and services offered exclusively at Penn State Behrend. We
hope this site will become a valuable tool for you and the student organizations
you represent. Please follow the link provided below. This will allow you to
browse through the site and see what is available. I would encourage you to
share this with your organizations and urge them to take advantage of the
opportunities to strengthen their organizations through leadership training and
development.
