The Center for Campus Involvement is the central hub for our 1,600 student organizations here at the University of Michigan. From your first steps looking to get involved in a group through being President of an organization, we can help support all of your involvement needs. Please be sure to check out Maize Pages to see a complete site with all of our organizations, our manual for all of our policies and procedures, and all of our leadership opportunities. We appreciate the work you do in creating a vibrant student organization community and look forward to supporting your work.
Each Fall semester, the CCI hosts Festifall on North and Central campus. For student organizations, having a table at Festifall or Northfest can be a great way to recruit new members and spread the word about your organization! Click here to learn more about Festifall!
What is Winterfest?
Winterfest is the annual student organization involvement fair that occurs at the beginning of the Winter semester. Historically held in the Michigan Union, Winterfest 2022 will be held virtually in order to ensure the health and safety of the Michigan community!
How It Works
With the COVID-19 Policies for RSOs lifting on July 1st, 2021 and the University preparing for a more open and in-person Fall semester, we know that there are lots of questions that you have regarding your student organizations. The University of Michigan still has COVID-19 policies that students are expected to follow, so please make sure you are referring to the Maize and Blueprint site for the most up-to-date information!
Taking time for self-care during these stressful times is crucial but what if you could take care of yourself and the well-being of your student organization at the same time? CCI's OrgAffinity wants to provide you and your organization members with Wellness Wednesday guides that care for all 8 aspects of wellness!
Looking for different ways to get involved and aren't sure where to start?
The Center for Campus Involvement can be your gateway to life beyond the classroom with Involvement Drop-Ins. Spend 30 minutes with a Peer Advisor to discuss different student organizations and involvement opportunities throughout campus. From programs to organizations and beyond, equip yourself with the tools and knowledge to get involved!
Below is a video recording of the Health & Wellness Panel for Student Organizations held on September 17, 2020. A transcript of the video is also available to download below.
Panelists joined CCI from MDining, Rec Sports, University Health Services (UHS) and Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) to answer questions from student organization members.

The Center for Campus Involvement is here to help our organizations and their campus support systems live into our campus values rooted in diversity, equity and inclusion. This toolkit is here to help you understand what it may can look like for your organization to be an integral part of the student organization community. As leaders of these groups, it is imperative that we continue to challenge ourselves to be more inclusive and welcoming to all. We hope that this workbook challenges you to ask, Whose perspectives, viewpoints, and voices are included? Also, whose may be missing?
Once completing the registration process the following resources can be helpful in navigating the student organization community.
