Archiving your Club Information

The Whitman College archive at Penrose Library would love to receive records and documents for your club! Consider passing along meeting minutes, event brochures/advertisements/programs, pictures, etc. Visit the archive website for more information.

Campus Calendars

There are two campus calendars which you can use to view or advertise current activities and events on campus.

The campus calendar is managed through the Conference and Events Office and lists major campus academic events, lectures, holidays, and other pertinent events at Whitman.  Events that are listed on this calendar are often ones that are open to the community, so if attendance at your event is not limited to students, then you could consider advertising it on this calendar. To submit and event or activity please email webcalendar@whitman.edu. 

There is also a Student Events Calendar devoted specifically to student programs. This is a great venue for advertising your event to students as well as a way to see what other events are occurring around the same time as your program. Many programming groups have access to add their events to the calendar on their own (e.g. Whitman Events Board, ASWC, Community Service, Intrafraternity Council/Panhellenic, etc.). To request that an event be added to this calendar, you can contact the Director or Program Advisor of Student Activities.

Resource Room

The Resource Room in the Reid Campus Center offers a number of resources to support student organizations. The room stocks a variety of paints and brushes for groups to make large campus signs and contains small lockers that groups may use to store supplies or materials.  It's also a great space for group activities that may not be easily accommodated in a regular meeting room. If your group is interested in using this room or one of the lockers, please contact Paul Dennis in the Reid Campus center Office, room 202.

 

Student Activities Fair

This event is listed in the official Opening Week schedule and attracts a huge crowd.  It allows for free publicity and is a great time for your club to recruit new members and show the new and returning students what you are all about!   The Student Activities Office will advertise table sign-ups in the Spring for the 2010 Activities Fair.  Contact the Student Activities Office for more information.
