Student Clubs & Teams
Belonging to and participating in clubs and organizations create tremendous benefits, including adapting to university life, making lasting friendships, learning about organizational structure and leadership, and providing a social outlet. Acquaintances made in these activities become a professional and personal network you will use throughout your career.
The College of Agriculture offers a wide variety of opportunities for students. Additionally, we rely on student leaders and organizations to assist our departments, research centers, and college in a variety of ways, including many competitions and activities which originate and/or are supported by student clubs. We encourage and need your involvement. We urge you to join the leaders in science, technology, and management.

Student Clubs
Alpha Gamma Rho
Alpha Gamma Rho isn't like other fraternities. In AGR you'll get the opportunity to experience both a social and a professional fraternity. AGR does what you expect a social fraternity to do: socialize with other students on campus and people in the community. AGR is also like other social fraternities in that it has a strong group of members and a house you can live in during your college years. But AGR is more than just one of those strictly social fraternities; it is also a professional fraternity. All members of AGR have related career interests. AGR is for young men pursuing any career related to the agriculture, food, or fiber industries.
