Office of Student Life
(859) 622-3855
Powell Student Center - Room 128
The Office of Student Life is the home for involvement and leadership for EKU students. It is dedicated to providing a wide range of opportunities, activities, and events designed to enhance the Eastern experience! The Office of Student Life works closely with registered student organizations (RSO’s), Greek Life, and Thursday Alternative Getaway (TAG).
The RSO’s are categorized into 10 specific areas: departmental, governance, religious, honorary, residence hall, service, sports, social fraternities, social sororities, and activity organizations. If your student has a special hobby or interest, EKU will most likely have an organization to meet his or her needs. If not, students can create their own organizations at Eastern!
The mission of the Office of Student Life is to enhance the quality of life of Eastern Kentucky University students by supporting the University’s commitment to the academic success and holistic development of each individual student.
The Office of Student Life fosters intellectual, physical, and social development through programs and services which challenge and support students as they develop skills for life-long learning.
The Office of Student Life encourages all students to get involved in the wide array of opportunities at EKU and in the Richmond community.
