Campus Activities Board

The Campus Activities Board (CAB) is one of the largest student organizations on campus. CAB works to bring entertainment to campus and they typically host weekly events during the semester. These events have consisted of large concerts, comedians, movies, magicians, and more. You can join CAB and help bring these events to campus or support them by simply attending their events.

Homecoming

There will be a week's worth of festivities and programming leading up to the game. Additionally, upperclassmen can apply to be on the Homecoming Court, in which students will represent WMU on the field at halftime.
