The Religion Undergraduate Student Association (RUSA) at UVA is established for the purpose of nourishing interests in religious studies, representing its members, and acting on behalf of their interests. Our purpose is to host two main events (student conference and a walkathon), liaise with the Department of Religious Studies, organize community events, and be a safe space. We hope to provide students of all majors with an outlet to explore religious studies and to connect other fields to the study of religion through our events.
Rem on Campus is the undergraduate vertical of Rem and Company. Rem and Company is a nation wide social impact initiative dedicated to supporting small businesses and the communities in which they exist.

The network of university-based chapters at over 20 universities across the US and Canada support Rem and Company's overarching mission of keeping doors open and dreams alive for female and minority-owned small businesses and non-profits. The UVA Chapter of Rem on Campus informally launched in Fall of 2020 and has continued to grow each semester.

SOUVA was established to promote STEM for middle-school and high-school students beyond the classroom in an environment that fosters learning. By volunteering for Science Olympiad tournaments and establishing a new invitational at the UVA, SOUVA students intend to contribute to Science Olympiad events that encourage investigation in life sciences, physical sciences, and inquiry, and assist students that lack the opportunity to practice and compete outside of the official circuit. In coordinating UVA volunteers with VASO, the Virginia Science Olympiad, SOUVA aims to provide centralized coordination of volunteers essential to the state tournament at the UVA and regional competitions, to support local parents and coaches.
She Writes History is an organization dedicated to women's history, scholarship, and community engagement. She Writes History was founded on the notion that women have been largely marginalized in our written history and spaces of public history, like the memorials we dedicate to individuals on UVA grounds. She Writes History was founded with the belief that narratives of women from the past must be elevated so that our understanding of the world and society is more complete. Women's narratives should also be put in conversation with other marginalized narratives to understand the complexity of our past and present. She Writes History is dedicated to elevating past female narratives, and creating platforms where women from the present can preserve their voice and achievements for future generations.
