Student Activities

It is easy to start a group at UMR!

All you need to start a student group is at least three members, one of which agrees to be the group's contact person, an advisor, and a statement of purpose or constitution. After you email that information to Nathan Tesch he will set up a brief meeting with the contact person and advisor. Once approved the group can reserve space on campus and request money from the Student Activities Board.

Groups that have been officially recognized on the Duluth or Twin Cities campus are encouraged to submit their information to Nathan as well.

Recognized Student Groups

Nursing College Board (NCB)
