As a student at Hastings, you have the unique opportunity to participate in a wide variety of activities. There are three types of student groups at Hastings College. If you still can’t find your niche after exploring the many student groups, we encourage you to pursue your own interests and start something new.
We provide students with traditional and new events for students to create meaningful relationships, explore interests and develop a sense of self and appreciation for their community. These will immerse you into the Hastings College campus culture and help set the stage for a successful college experience.
