Student Leadership & Service
An annual service day within the Columbus community which partners with over 30 non-profits to provide students, faculty, staff, and community partners with an opportunity to engage through service. This day is designed for students to gain more insight into how service impacts our community. We hope that it creates the initial opportunity for students to network with our community partners and serve them throughout the academic year. More information on Day of Service
Cougarthon is a student-led organization dedicated to serving our local Children’s Hospital and the Children’s Miracle Network. It is an annual campus-wide philanthropic event that is a yearlong fundraiser. This event encompasses dancing, challenges, events and testimonies from our miracle families. Students involved in Cougarthon gain valuable skills in fundraising, peer management, delegation, and philanthropy. Miracle Network Dance Marathon programs have collectively raised more than $400 million since 1991. More information on Cougarthon
