Student Clubs

The purpose of the Tea Society Club is to expose students to worldly teas and conversations centered around the cultural influences of the aromas. We explore the cultural significance of tea, its preparation and its history. We want to educate students about these things and have them join us on our tea journey. We discuss tea while having social commentary.

The VETS Club at CT State Manchester brings together students with prior or current military service as well as students who want to support veterans. Through the OASIS services, we help veterans enroll in classes, obtain tutoring or other educational aid, apply for financial aid and veterans’ benefits, and smooth separation from the service and the return to school. We also serve as a liaison between our veterans and veterans’ communities and organizations outside of CT State Manchester.  The VETS Club plans activities and programs which contribute to the understanding and appreciation of the military by campus students and the local community. Activities and programming are determined by members at our club meetings.
