About the Office
We are an important resource for UC students who want to be involved while attending the University of Cincinnati. Staffed with full-time professionals and graduate assistants who are available through the year, the office provides leadership and direction for the more than 300 student organizations, as well as a full range of activities and cultural programs for students.
Our office provides programs that have an intentional educational component, specifically the leadership development of our students when organizing "programs" or "leading" a cohort. With all the services and programs we provide, the intent is to build the leadership skills of our students to make them better citizens.

The office of Student Activities and Leadership Development supports the mission of the University of Cincinnati by promoting and guiding purposeful student engagement, fostering a sense of community, providing opportunities of student growth and leadership development. We aspire to create an inclusive environment that celebrates diversity and enhances our students’ ability to become global citizens.
