Bridge the gap and broaden your horizons!

Start a group or join a club.

Outside of education, one of the most important aspects of university life is the people you meet, the sharing of ideas, and the friends you make. This holds true for the distance student as much as it does for the student attending classes in body every day. In fact, for the distance student it is more important because they lack the context of physical connections with others.

Part of bridging the gap is belonging to groups and clubs that exist for those with like interests - whether are purely academic, purely social, or a mixture of the two. Groups and clubs can range from those of an academic flavour, to those concentrating on religion, sport, ethnicity, culture, or anything else that you desire.

Athabasca University Students’ Union invites and encourages you to help bring together students who share your interests, hobbies, and educational goals, by creating groups and clubs for the sharing of ideas, information, time, and company. With the size of the AU student population, chances are good that if you want to start a club in something you’re interested in, so does someone else.

Although the groups and clubs you create will be of a different form than those in a more traditional university setting, they can be just as interesting and just as fulfilling. This section of the Students’ Union website exists to help you in your quest to find, and band together, those with whom you have a common bond.

We are currently seeking new clubs, and would love to hear from anyone who has an idea for one. If you’ve got an idea for a group or club, or you want other information that you cannot find here, please don’t hesitate to contact Tamra at executivedirector@ausu.org. We are here to assist you in any way we can, and welcome suggestions that would help us improve our website and the services we provide.
