Student Life

ASU seeks to offer a student life experience that is  traditional whenever and wherever possible. Social distancing will certainly call for adaptations to our traditional student life experience. Our continued primary focus is to provide a holistic student experience that engages the students head, hand, and heart.

Student Organizations

Utilizing established social distancing protocols, ASU will continue to operate its student organizations and Student Life engagement programs. Several traditional student engagement activities may not be able to occur this fall and some will be modified to occur in virtual or  hybrid formats.

Also impacted by social distancing protocols are registered student organizations. These organizations will be provided with guidelines related to their continued on-campus operations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fraternity and Sorority Life

Recruitment activities for these organizations will be permissible based on guidelines as provided by their national organization leadership and ASU COVID-19 pandemic safety protocols. The only allowable activities are those that are able to take place in a social distance manner.
