Student Caucuses

During your time at Columbia we strongly encourage you to actively participate in student life by joining one of the nearly 30 student groups, known as caucuses. Caucuses provide the opportunity to cultivate relationships with your peers while advocating for a cause that is important to you. Below is our current caucus list as well as information on the caucuses and their current leaders.

The events that your caucuses plan on your behalf are educational, stimulating and fun. For most CSSW students, the biggest challenge lies in choosing among the myriad activities competing for your attendance and participation. There are School-wide events each semester including Self-Care Day in the Fall and Community Day in the Spring, as well as the Spring Gala at the end of the year. Many of the student groups sponsor panels, film screenings and other events that you won’t want to miss. This past year, for example, the Criminal Justice Caucus held a panel featuring Angela Davis that was open to entire student body at Columbia University—it was standing room only.

If you have any questions about caucuses or would like to start your own, please reach out to Student Life at [email protected].
