SOAcon

SOACon returns to Norris Center Friday April 18, 2025, 4-6pm.
The event is open to all undergraduate and TGS students and particularly catered to students rising into roles of leadership and responsibility in student organizations for 2025-26.
The event includes networking opportunities, interactive sessions for student leaders to learn from each other, and a series of trending topic presentations to propel emerging student leaders into their positions and make their orgs more successful.
Student organizations work with several on-campus resources and non-Northwestern enterprises. This event will build connections between these valued partners and the student organization community. Food and beverage will be available in the Louis Room, and conference delegates can collect extra entries into our prize opportunity by engaging with the vendor/resource fair tables.
