community & regional planning student organization (crpso)

CRPSO works to host a variety of activities and address student concerns. CRPSO representatives work to address broader student issues with program administrators and faculty. We hope you will be a part of this dialogue and make CRPSO a stronger organization.

Activities

Happy Hour — Once a week CRP student congregate to socialize and chew the fat.

Intramural Sports — Help represent CRP in our struggle for athletic dominance! Last year we participated in soccer and basketball.

Networking — Hosted an event downtown at Six, a casual bar, where current CRP students had the opportunity to meet alumni and prospective employers. Four students received positions as a result of the event.

Volunteering — CRPSO partnered with Blackland Community Development Corporation to help transform an old home into a community center.

Kickball Tournament — CRP competed against other graduate programs for charity. While we gave the Architects a run for their money, we lost by a hair. The challenge is still on!

CRP@50 — CRPSO helped to coordinate the 50th Anniversary celebration of the CRP program which included an alumni breakfast, a gala celebratory dinner, and an alumni forum.

Open House Recruitment — CRPSO helped to organize the annual visit for prospective graduate students, which included detailed program information, campus tours, opportunities to speak with current CRP students, and social activities
