Campus Life is the center for co-curricular engagement where students find their place, pursue interests and develop passions, cultivate their leadership capacity and nurture affinity for Quinnipiac.

Campus Life empowers students to take ownership of their educational journey. We create spaces where students develop as healthy leaders, citizens and critical thinkers who are prepared to lead change in our global society. Our collaborative co-curricular approach engages members of the Quinnipiac community in experiential learning, recreational opportunities, comprehensive campus-wide programming, high-impact service projects and dynamic leadership ventures. We cultivate an environment where resiliency, spirit, inclusive excellence, wellness, lifelong learning and affinity for Quinnipiac thrive.

The Department of Campus Life is located on the second floor of the Carl Hansen Student Center on the Mount Carmel Campus in suite 202, as well as the fourth floor of the Rocky Top Student Center on the York Hill Campus. The staff can be reached at 203-582-8673 or at campuslife@qu.edu
