Office of Student Engagement

In addition to formal learning in the Liberal Arts, a broad education gives students the opportunity to develop values and competencies that will enable them to be contributing members of society. Both inside and outside the classroom, one finds opportunities to assume and exercise responsibility, to acquire leadership and communication skills, and to make sound judgments on various levels.

The Office encompasses many areas of interest for our students.  We oversee Clubs and Organizations, the operation of the Hubert Campus Center, New Student Orientation, Campus Recreation, the Prevention of Power Based Violence, Leadership Programming and International Student Support and Engagement.

All parts of the college community join in preparing a well-rounded, relevant, and interesting series of events on campus during the academic year. Student clubs and organizations sponsor a variety of events including annual traditions such as Homecoming and Spring Week as well as dances, workshops, lectures, performers, homegrown programs and off campus trips, and more. 

The Campus Activities Board (CAB) plans events each week for students to participate in, as well events on the weekends. If you are interested in planning events or want to get involved, contact CAB at cab@albertus.edu. 

The Student Government Association (SGA) is our governing body for the students.  SGA advocates for the students and the issues they face on campus regarding campus life, dining and other related issues.  To join SGA or let them know of an issue you’d like to discuss, please contact SGA at sga@albertus.edu. 

The Office for Student Engagement strives to be an inclusive and welcoming community that honors and celebrates our students as individuals. We are student-focused and offer support and growth for our students through engagement, advocacy, respect, creating a sense of belonging, and promoting student leadership.

The list of active student organizations on campus changes each year. Please check the Student Engagement section on the Albertus Magnus College portal (MyAlbertus) for an updated list of student organizations. Students who are interested in forming a new student organization are encouraged to meet with the staff in the Office for Student Engagement to find out more information.

Each year our staff works on the holistic development of our students through campus recreation, intramural sports and fitness programs.  The Hubert Campus Center houses a fitness center open for all students to use as well as we host yoga and zumba classes.  3 v 3 basketball, corn hole, pickleball, dodgeball and other intramural sports are a great way to meet new people and stay active!

Our staff supports the engagement and overall experience of our international students.  They participate in their own new student orientation in addition to one for all incoming students.  They have a staff member dedicated to helping them to get involved, stay on track with their academics and assist them in adjusting to life and the culture of living in the United States and studying at an American college.

We support survivors and anyone affected by Power Based Violence that is a part of our community.  Various programs are planned throughout the year to give awareness and share resources.  If you are in need of resources or assistance, please contact prevention@albertus.edu.
