Business Clubs & Organizations

Taking advantage of opportunities outside of the classroom does more than connect you with your business-minded peers — participation in cocurricular activities also lets employers know you are a team player willing to take risks, put in the extra time and make an earnest effort to get the job done. Over the years, business administration students have been involved in organizations such as:

Enactus

Nurture your entrepreneurial spirit with humanitarian-minded projects that enrich your resume and increase your community involvement. Colby-Sawyer’s chapter of Enactus, an international organization dedicated to improving the world through the positive power of business, offers opportunities to work with faculty, local business leaders and peers on projects that achieve tangible results for the community.

Enactus not only provides the experience and contacts necessary to build a successful career, participation also develops your knowledge in literacy, business ethics, market economics, environmental sustainability, success skills, entrepreneurship and international development. Enactus competitions present opportunities to present your work to business leaders who rate the quality and impact of your project against other colleges and universities — Colby-Sawyer’s chapter has taken three first-place regional wins, earning them a spot at the national competition. Learn more about this community of students, educators and executives at enactus.org.

Community Service Club

Make a difference through volunteer opportunities that enhance your academic experience including food, toy and coat drives, as well as service projects in public schools, the arts, pediatric and elder care, anti-hunger, historic preservation, and sustainability and the environment. The club has partnered with nonprofit organizations including American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Habitat for Humanity and Special Olympics New Hampshire.

Cross Cultural Club

Join international and American students interested in learning from each other over ethnic dinners, off-campus cultural events and organizing campus activities, including the annual International Festival.

Student Government Association

Business students have long honed their leadership and management skills by holding positions in student government at Colby-Sawyer. As a student-centered institution, we value student input and having a part in some self-governance. There are a wide number of roles for students to play, and many of our alumni spent all four of their years contributing to the government association.

BOLD Women’s Leadership Network

Some of our BOLD students are business majors or minors. BOLD is funded through a grant with the Helen Gurley Brown Foundation to support first generation female college students. The program works with its members to grow leadership skills through a variety of programs, internship funding, and post-graduation fellowships.
