About Us

Cur Non is our rallying cry and it means “Why not?”: Why not have the courage and confidence to take risks, connect ideas and care deeply about your community. Why not engage in every aspect of campus life to create your own destiny. Why not use your intellect, talent, energy, and humanity to find your place in the world.
