- Community service projects
- Online communication through shorter.edu
- Conversations with Dr. Dowless and various Shorter faculty and staff
Clubs typically:
- Sponsor educational programs for alumni and community
- Plan activities that encourage fellowship among alumni and friends of Shorter
- Welcome new alumni and new students to the local Shorter community
- Help recruit outstanding high school students for admissions
- Sponsor alumni in local community service projects
- Strive to increase public awareness of Shorter in the local community
- Aid in placing students and graduates with local businesses during vacations and after graduation
- Support the university's fund-raising activities
