There is always something going on at SUNY Potsdam and the Campus Life Office provides many opportunities to get involved. Below are just a few:

  • Student Activities - The Campus Life office hosts a variety of events throughout the academic year. Each week, Campus Life provides a schedule of these events and more through fliers, table tents, and other formats to help promote student involvement. The Get Involved site provides information about clubs and organizations, campus events, and leadership programs. This is your best source to find out what is going on at SUNY Potsdam.
