You’re a Tail Wagger

Explore your passions—find your purpose.

Tail Wagger—travels in packs.

You’re a social animal, no bones about it. Being with people gives you energy, and you’re happiest when your planner is full and the academic, social, and service aspects of your life all start to blend together.

And Tail Waggers thrive at Butler.

Because, at Butler, there’s always something to do. You’ll be constantly heading to a club meeting, cheering on the Bulldogs, hitting the gym, enjoying an outdoor concert in Indy, volunteering in the community, taking in a performance at the Butler Arts and Events Center, or just hanging out with your friends in the lounge of your residence hall. Believe us, it’ll be a blast.

Tail Wagger Interests

Student Organizations

Nearly everyone you meet at Butler is involved with something outside of class. Because for us, taking part in new and unique experiences is a way of life. With over 200 student organizations on campus, there are plenty of options to choose from to find just the right fit.

Fraternity & Sorority Life

For over one-third of Butler students, building lasting relationships, developing skills as leaders, and organizing all-campus fundraisers through Greek Life is college at its best. With the potential to explore new experience and activities, our chapters (seven fraternities and eight sororities) plan formals and social events, service projects, and stay connected with alumni mentors.

Student Government Association

From representing the student body, supporting the more than 200 student organizations on campus, addressing student concerns, and providing engaging programming, the Student Government Association, or SGA for short, is a great way to connect to the Butler community while honing your leadership skills.

Butler Student Ambassadors

Ever wonder who the students are who lead campus tours for prospective students and their families? It’s Butler Student Ambassadors, which is an on-campus employment opportunity, perfect for students who want to share their love of Butler with the world.
