Each fall campus organizations participate in the Activities Fair that is held in front of the Student Union Building. This event allows the organizations to showcase themselves, and it gives students the opportunity to learn more about them. The organizations recommend attending an informational meeting to determine if your goals are a match with the group's objectives. Most informational meetings are usually held once or twice during a school year. Students interested in Alpha Phi Omega, Blue Key, Cardinal Key, National Pan-Hellenic Council, or Tau Lambda Sigma are all required to go through a recruitment process before membership can be extended.
Recruitment seasons vary with each organization.
Student ambassadors also conduct interviews each spring semester for students who would like to become campus tour guides. The majority of service projects are done off-campus and within the Kirksville community. Located in the Ryle Hall foyer, the Serve Center assists campus organizations in finding volunteers to help out with service projects. Students are also encouraged to create new groups and clubs.
