TAMS has a wide variety of clubs available to students including academics, fine arts, technology, and more! Clubs at TAMS are unique in that most, if not all, activities and events run by clubs are student driven.

Advised

Advised club status is given to select clubs. They receive a TAMS staff as an advisor and budget directly from TAMS Student Life. Additionally, Advised clubs have to adhere to specific rules regarding exec selection, usage of budget, events, etc.

Club Advisor

Club advisors are usually consists of academic counselors, hall directors, program advisors, and resident assistants. Generally, the advisor checks on each club to ensure they are fulfilling their role within TAMS. However, some clubs are more closely tied to their advisor compared to others.
