Activities and Student Organizations
Connect with people who share your interests.
The ¹ú²ú¶ÌÊÓƵ has over 600 student organizations. From academic to professional, cultural to service groups, these organizations are a great way to make friends and learn new things.

In this section we provide a brief overview of theatre and dance student organizations at USF.
Student Theatre Production Board
The Student Theatre Production Board (STPB) is a student organization dedicated to student-produced theatre. STPB seeks to promote student involvement in the ¹ú²ú¶ÌÊÓƵtheatrical community by giving students the chance to direct, act, design and tech their own shows. We give students the opportunity to practice, produce, and experiment with their own art. In addition to putting on student-directed, -acted, -designed, and -written shows, we also act to bring the ¹ú²ú¶ÌÊÓƵtheatre community at large together. We plan fundraisers, academic events, theatre activities and the like to help our community grow and bring awareness into the arts.
