Eastern Student Delia McCarthy of Niantic Participates in University Club

2018 Apr 2

Many Eastern Connecticut State University students participate in Eastern's clubs during the academic year. Student club programs range from social to educational, physical to spiritual and civic engagement programs that benefit and enrich Eastern, its students and the local community.

Delia McCarthy '19 of Niantic is participating in the Pride Alliance club during the spring 2018 semester. McCarthy's major is Social Work.

The purpose of the Pride Alliance club is to broaden the school's understanding of diversity. The organization does so by hosting speakers, public forums, visibility programs and other related activities.

Eastern students who participate in clubs/organizations excel in the classroom and do better academically than students who do not participate. Students participating in clubs had an average GPA of 3.10, much higher than the 2.94 average for students who do not participate in any of the clubs/organizations.
