Student Organizations

Geography Club

Carthage's Geography Club is a notably vibrant and active student club on campus. The club not only represents and energetic cohort of Geography majors and minors, but also promotes a wider awareness of geography and geographic diversity among the general student body. The club organizes events to commemorate Geography Awareness Week, including demonstrations and GPS "treasure hunting" for  GIS Day. The Geography Club also hosts camping and geocaching trips, in addition to field trips to the Milwaukee urban area, Chicago Chinatown and other destinations. The club meets weekly to plan activities, share J-Term travel experiences and play geography games.

In May 2009, the Geography Club hosted a Friday Family Fun Night at Hedberg Library and had an exceptionally high turnout from the community. Club members designed tree-ring and rocks demos, Geography Bee, and Geocaching candy hunting for kids of various ages to promote wider awareness of geography.
