The Student Activities Board, Jaguar Productions, presents activities to serve the cultural, educational, recreational, and social interests of students. Students directly involved have opportunities to exemplify creative thinking and leadership outside the classroom.

Jaguar Productions functions through committees, such as Music, Special Events, Technical, and Variety Acts. Students select, publicize and produce the events. All students are invited to join these committees. For more information, please call (251) 460-7144 or visit the Jaguar Productions Office on the first floor of the USA Student Center.

The Office of Student Involvement seeks to provide students with developmental opportunities beyond the scope of the classroom through involvement in activities, campus and community service, and student organizations. The Office of Student Organizations and Leadership Development is responsible for the registration and supervision of over 250 student clubs and organizations, ranging from social to professional/departmental, religious organizations, honor societies, and special interest groups. Student organizations at the University exist as an integral part of the total educational experience. Their general purpose is to contribute to the development and welfare of the students and to benefit the entire community. Student organizations are established and managed by students and are subject to the regulations of the University. Student organization responsibilities include adherence to the organization’s announced purposes and sound business management. Basic democratic operational procedures are expected of all student organizations.
