Biology Club

The CUA Biology Club is an organization for all those interested in the life sciences. During the academic year, the Club organizes a combination of social and educational activities which provides many opportunities for students to interact with the faculty and with each other. The club sponsors lecture series addressing current issues and other topics of interest and provides members with opportunities to establish contacts with professionals in the life sciences. A sampling of recent Club activities includes Welcoming party at the beginning of the academic year; career talks; fall dinner; lecture series; premed-oriented programs; Christmas party; end-of-year barbecue, and; the Thanksgiving fundraiser for SOME (So Others May Eat).
