Dear Student:

Welcome to the opportunities for involvement here at Loras College! We believe in the concept of seamless learning. In other words, learning takes place whether you are surrounded by four walls in a classroom, attending a residence hall program or honoring others with service in a soup kitchen. This learning is what Loras College is all about.

As you begin your academic year, I invite you to immerse yourself in the opportunities offered by Loras College. Student clubs and organizations, service learning, studying away, and intercollegiate sports and intramurals are fantastic ways to gain experience and learn more about who you are. Exposure to different opinions, learning to work with others, organizing your time, and representing Loras to the outside community are experiences we hope you encounter during your years with us. The skills and abilities gained through involvement are lifelong. These experiences enhance the intellectual knowledge you obtain during your academic career, and make you a well rounded student and citizen.

Get started by introducing yourself to other students and discovering what opportunities await you or by calling the Student Life Office at 588-7206. Welcome to Loras College, we look forward to your contribution to our community!

Sincerely,

Art SunleafDean of Students

Welcome to Loras!

Loras College offers many clubs and organizations for you to get involved in! You can find involvement opportunities based on academic majors, professional interests, hobbies, sports, spirituality, politics and honor societies. To get involved in any of the organizations listed, we encourage you to attend Campus Fest, our annual student club and organization festival, in the beginning of the fall semester. Throughout the year, if you would like to get involved in other organizations we encourage you to contact the president or advisor of an organization that interests you, or attend one of the organization’s meetings or programs. Additionally, if we do not currently offer an organization for an area you are interested in, we can assist you in starting up a new organization with other interested students. Please feel free to stop by or contact the Student Life Office for more information on student activities and co-curricular involvement opportunities.
