Aspiring Educators is the only professional association in the state for pre-service educators to pursue professional development, community service, and advocacy opportunities. The organization is open to all students, but we primarily serve students planning on entering into careers in education. Here at SNC, Aspiring Educators meet at their discretion to work in their communities, coordinate events, and provide professional learning opportunities for members.

SNC Pen Pals is an organization of St. Norbert College students working with freshman AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) Programs at Green Bay area high schools. the mission of the organization is for SNC students to communicate with the high school students throughout the academic year via a "snail mail" letter exchange system, acting as a mentor and getting to know the student. The goal for the end of the program is to have the high school student more interested and informed about college as a possible option for their futures; but not necessarily St. Norbert College itself. The writing process ends each year with the high school students visiting the St. Norbert College campus to meet and spend time with their pen pals.
