How students can get involved in WAGE: Students are the drivers of our programs at the WAGE Center – most, if not all, of our most successful events and programs come from the creativity, spirit, and passion of the students we serve. Bring your ideas our way! Join us for events and programming or gather a group of your friends together to share space at our cozy home-away-from-home at 34 South Williams. Students are always encouraged to swing through and access our FREE food pantry. We also encourage students who have questions, concerns, or experiences of sexual or intimate partner violence to seek support from the Campus Advocate. We have limited Work Study and Internship placements available each semester.
