SCU Vibes is a student organization at Santa Clara University that focuses on sense of belonging as a Santa Clara student, our campus culture, and awareness of how people treat each other. SCU Vibes zooms in to focus on students’ daily interactions in order to be able to zoom out and see the improvement of the big picture dynamic of student life. Our mission statement is the following:

We want to cultivate a strong sense of belonging as a Santa Clara student, a unified and connected campus community, pride in being a Santa Clara student, and a supportive, kind, and positive atmosphere. We want to build on and promote what makes student life at Santa Clara so special. We want people to walk around campus and feel like they care about each other.

Rather than a niche club, SCU Vibes is a cultural movement towards awareness of how people treat each other. A member only simply needs to be cognizant of the growing desire for care, and for the strengthening of the core identity of a Santa Clara student.

SCU Vibes will be hosting events such as speaker series, with an emphasis on bringing in alumni speakers. We hope for alumni speakers to share with the student body the tradition, pride, and amazing history of student life we have at SCU, and to foster the feeling of camaraderie that spans generations of Broncos.
