Student Organizations
Student Activities helps students find their way by providing a multitude of opportunities to get involved on campus and helping registered student organizations to be successful.
Are you interested in joining a club?
With over 400 registered student organizations (RSOs) from which to choose, students have the opportunity to explore interests, develop academics, and hone leadership skills.
Redbird Life
The Redbird Life portal is where involvement begins. Join registered student organizations, find out about campus events, all in one place.
Student Involvement Center
Visit the Student Involvement Center located at 227 Bone Student Center across from Qdoba to learn more about campus involvement and to set up a meeting with one of our campus involvement staff. They are always excited to talk with students about involvement opportunities!

Fall 2021 RSO COVID-19 Updates
Policies and Procedures
The University will continue to follow the most up-to-date health and safety guidance and will make adjustments accordingly when necessary.
For fall 2021, RSOs will be able to:
- Resume meetings, programs, and events in-person. RSOs will also be able to reserve classroom space through appropriate scheduling channels.
- Recruit RSO members at Festival ISU in-person. The event is planned to occur over several days to create lower density events targeting different RSO clusters on each day.
- Register events with alcohol.
- Utilize non-prepackaged food. RSOs will still need to submit necessary paperwork for a temporary food permit.

RSO Travel
Travel by Sponsored Registered Student Organizations is considered University-sponsored travel. As a result, Sponsored RSOs must follow University guidance and any restrictions related to University-sponsored travel. For information on required University-sponsored travel practices, visit the University Sponsored Student Travel section on the Fall 2021: Return to a More Traditional College Experience website.
Travel by Independent Registered Student Organizations is not considered University-sponsored travel. However, Independent RSOs should be aware that restrictions on the use of University fleet vehicles may impact their ability to travel.
