More than 100 student organizations are registered each year with OSL. Most students become members of an organization during their four years at Oxy, and use that experience as a way to develop their personal skills and meet new people. Student orgs form around shared interests including identity, culture, language, sports, and social issues. Each registered club has an advisor who is an Oxy staff or faculty member and works with the club to plan events, work through problems, and ensure compliance with College policies.
