In addition, the club participates in several campus and community activities, and members are encouraged to attend state and national leadership conferences.
The Photography Club received the DSU Award for Community Service for creating unique opportunities to serve people around them. Throughout the past year, the club has provided services to three different organizations and continues to equip students to use their skills to help serve the community independently. Activities included:
– A photo shoot for the Madison Regional Health System
– Professional headshots at the Career and Internship Fair
– Holiday photos for families who may not have had the opportunity otherwise
The Alliance earned DSU Award for Organizational Leadership. The goal of The Alliance is to provide a welcoming environment on campus for students of all identities and orientations.
