With dozens of extracurricular activities to choose from, KCUMB has something for just about everyone.

The Office of Student Activities can help connect students with the organization or activity that best fits their interests, whether that means participating in student government, tutoring local children or singing in a student musical group. There are more than 25 student organizations on campus.

All University organizations complete at least one community-service project and one fund-raiser annually. Most organizations have monthly meetings and host special speakers. Members have the opportunity to network, attend national conventions, promote the medical profession and participate in special clinical experiences.

The Office of Student Activities oversees the University's student government. Upon enrollment, every student becomes a member of the Student Government Association (SGA). Officers and senators of SGA serve on administration and faculty committees, and they help to bring about changes that will benefit the student body as a whole.

Many KCUMB students represent the University and the profession on a national level. Currently, students are serving on committees of the American Osteopathic Association, filling leadership positions on the Council of Student Government Presidents, and playing key roles in national executive positions for the Student National Medical Association and the American National Student Association.

The Office of Student Activities also manages the KCUMB student ambassador program. Student ambassadors are selected student representatives who give tours of campus, serve on panels and committees, and are involved in all major campus events, such as Graduation, White Coating and Homecoming. The ambassadors also coordinate the hosting program and "guest night."
