Office of Student Activities
At Butler, we strive to create a vibrant co-curricular atmosphere where students can engage in involvement opportunities that maximize their Butler experience and simultaneously enhance their leadership skills. Our office works with Butler University’s 200+ recognized student organizations that encompass 18 themed categories such as Advocacy, Cultural, Faith-Based, Health & Well-Being, Service, Student Governance, and more.
Student Organization Directory
Interested in learning more about our organizations? Visit the Directory of Student Organizations on Butler Engage. Search groups by name, category, or interest. After finding an organization, learn more about their mission, membership process, and upcoming events by exploring their profile.
Starting a Student Organization
Do you have an interest not currently represented among our recognized student organizations? You can start a new student organization through the Office of Student Activities. Begin the process by scheduling a meeting with a member of our team to discuss your group and review requirements. New organizations require a leadership team (minimum of four student leaders and one faculty or staff advisor), a constitution, and an organization profile in Butler Engage. Once reviewed and approved, your group will become an officially recognized student organization.
If you’d like to request funding, you may also seek financial grants through Student Government Association (SGA). For full details regarding SGA funding, visit https://butlersga.org/.
