UPCOMING SPRING EVENTS

Promote Your Student Organization at the Spring 2025 Blu’s Organizations Bash!

Mark your calendar for Wednesday, February 5th, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM in the Ojibwe & Dakota Ballrooms (3rd floor - Davies Center).

This recruitment fair is your opportunity to showcase your student organization to a wide audience, including:

• Students who missed the Fall BOB event
• Recent transfer students
• Current students looking for new ways to get involved

With the Spring BOB event held alongside the Part-Time Job Fair, you'll connect with even more engaged attendees. Spaces are limited, so register your student organization today and make your mark on the UWEC community!

Funding Opportunities & Resources

Applications are now open for 2025-2026 Student Organization Funding requests.

• Student organizations can apply for up to $1,800.
• You must provide the required documents within the application form, and be prepared to present your budget to the Student Organizations Commission in late February/early March.
• Funding awards will be available on July 1, 2025.
• Funding allocations are set up as reimbursements, meaning the funds will not be given to the organization up front, receipts and proof of purchases must be submitted before funds will be released.

  After your application is reviewed you will be asked to provide a brief presentation to the Student Organizations Commission.
