Her Campus
The Her Campus (HC) chapter at SAU is one of 750+ chapters in more than 35 countries.
Her Campus is an online magazine for college women and GenZ. Members include women from all majors, backgrounds, and life experiences who meet once a month and write about world events as well as happenings on campus and in our lives. HC doesn't fall in line with either political party; writers may express themselves within our National Guidelines.
Her Campus will work to create a platform for its members to engage and connect with the University. Membership in this organization is open to all students. We are also starting a Big/Little program to help incoming students and freshmen adjust to college life and give them a firm foundation.
Membership
We have typically about 30-35 members with about 10-12 on the Executive Board which consists of a Campus Correspondent (President), Senior Editor, Editors, Social Media Director, a Social Media Team, PR/Marketing Director, Events Coordinator, Events Committee, and a Secretary.
An additional leadership role involves being the club representative on the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Council.
Contact the chapter president for more information and follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and Tiktok!

We meet once a month or replace the meeting with a fun event. We want it to be easy for you to be involved, so members get one day a month to write a short article of your choosing and come to whatever events you want! We have something for everyone!
