Her Campus Recommendation: What Organizations Empower HER?

The opinions expressed in this article are the writer’s own and do not reflect the views of Her Campus.
This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at CAU chapter.

Participating in organizations is an essential part of our college experience. They allow us to try new things, discover new interests, develop new skills, and prepare for our future. Not only can you expect to meet people who share similar interests, but you can gain lifelong friends who could potentially help you in your career field. Later this evening, Clark Atlanta University is expected to have its first organization fair of the semester. We are here to provide you slight knowledge on a few of the organizations that will be in attendance.

Panther Newspaper

The Panther newspaper is your new source of news at CAU. Since 1945, this organization has helped students develop new skills such as writing, photography, digital editing, graphic design, and more. Not only can you build your portfolio, but you can also create long-lasting opportunities. Students can network within their career fields and develop their resumes by being involved. Through the Panther newspaper, students have the chance to pursue opportunities such as celebrity interviews; some have interviewed Michael B. Jordan, Jacob Latimore, and DC Young Fly. This organization is currently seeking passionate staff writers, fashion editors, breaking news reporters, and social media gurus. If you have a passion for writing, entertainment, and editing, this organization is for you.

The organization fair is just hours away and with the names of these organizations you can already have an idea of what tables to cross before the event. It is never an issue to be prepared. While considering these organizations and speaking to representatives, remember to speak with confidence, express your interest clearly, and ask detailed questions. Each of these organizations empowers the women on Clark Atlantaā€™s campus in several ways. They all have bred leaders, creatives, and the next generation of successful owners on our campus.
