Find a Student Organization

There are over 1,400 student organizations at Ohio State and over half of all students join a student organization. Students who choose to get involved achieve many positive outcomes - leadership skills, better grades, friendships and mentors, and make a big campus seem small. Use the tools below to search for, find, and get involved with student organizations.

You can also connect with many of our student organizations at our Student Involvement Fairs in August and January. Check out the Student Involvement Fairs webpage for the latest information.

For individualized assistance find the student organization that's right for you, schedule a Get Involved Consultation. These 30-minute meetings will provide a personalized list of recommendations based on your interests and aspirations.

Please consult this list of student organizations with revoked registration as of Spring 2024. Some organizations continue to operate after their registration has been revoked despite the action taken by the university. We encourage you to review an organization’s status before becoming involved with it, especially because sometimes an organization’s status is revoked due to serious concerns like hazing and other behavior that risks your health and safety.

Kensho: Asian Philosophy Reading Group

Campus: Columbus
Status: Pending
Purpose Statement: The purpose of the Kensho: Asian Philosophy Reading Group is to create a forum for dialogue amongst advanced undergraduate and graduate students on topics relevant to Asian philosophy. These topics include, but are not limited to, the contributions Asian philosophers have made to the areas of epistemology, ethics, mind, metaphysics, and aesthetics. The Kensho: Asian Philosophy Reading Group aims to provide an environment where members of the Ohio State community are exposed to non-western philosophical thought, come to understand it, and engage in comparative or exegetical work with Asian philosophical thought. It is our belief that having a space to collaborate with our colleagues and peers will generate opportunities for discussions and projects which will advance our understanding of the issues from a non-Western perspective, come to ask new questions that Western philosophical methodologies tend to preclude, and lead to new horizons in philosophical dialogue between the different traditions. In addition, Kensho: Asian Philosophy Reading Group will strive to increase awareness and communication between disciplines, so that students can approach Asian philosophical texts with different methodologies and approaches, leading to a deeper understanding and appreciation for Asian philosophical thought and its varied traditions.
