Why should students get involved with your organization? Worcester State’s student population is over 60% women-identifying individuals. Our club celebrates the accomplishment and pursuit of higher education of each of those women. Students should get involved not only because our club applies to the WSU student body community, but also to find opportunities within our school that they can further apply themselves to or celebrate a cause they’re passionate about.
What types of events and/or programs do you do throughout the year? In addition to our bi-weekly general meetings, WSU Fems hosts a series of events each semester that incorporate the educational aspects of our general meeting with the fun, excitement, and social engagement of big events such as balls, panels, picnics, menstraul products drives, and crafts for students to enjoy.
What has been one of the biggest successes of this organization? The biggest success as a brand new club has been the initial interest of so many inspiring students at the school. Women really identified WSU Fems as a piece of engagement that had so far been missing in the WSU community. With large student numbers and support behind us, we’re looking forward to an amazing first semester.
What do you think your organization brings to the students at Worcester State?WSU Fems brings the opportunity to not only celebrate, but also educate so many students about how they can best succeed in their professional lives. We have so many educational resources and networks available to our club members, and we are excited for those opportunities to continue to grow.
How can interested students join your organization? Interested students can shoot us an email or a DM for access to our Google Classroom code to join our classroom. They can also visit our Instagram page to see when our next meeting or event will be and attend it if they can!
