Joining a student organization is a great way to get involved at the University of West Georgia and meet other students with similar interests. The Center for Student Involvement recently hosted Student Organizational Week on Jan. 25 through 29 outside the Campus Center Ballroom.

“Every semester we do something different for the student organizations,” said Crystal Brown, coordinator of the student involvement programs. “Usually we have a whole day, but this time we decided to make a student organizational week.”

The organizations were divided among the days of the week. Monday was the Departmental, Educational and Social Greek day; Tuesday was Honorary and Professional Organization day; Wednesday was Special Interest and Political Organization day; Thursday was Religious, Student Government Association and International Organization day; and Friday was Recreational, Service and Social day.

UWG has 134 different student organizations geared towards a wide variety of student interests, from community service to entertainment programs.

One type of entertainment program is the newly found Phatal Atraktion Dance Crew. The dance group was founded by UWG junior Stefan Riley.

“We like to keep the crowd entertained with different themes,” said Riley.

The dance crew recently performed a step show depicting ‘nerdy’ students trying to win the affection of the opposite sex through dancing. The dance crew has even done a Michael Jackson tribute.

“We have a lot of fun coming up with different themes to incorporate into dancing,” said Qwanesha Bryant, junior.
