King's societies

From rowing and politics, to the Entrepreneurship Lab and Music Society, there is a King's society for everyone. Students at King's can help run formals, organise the King's Affair, put on a show or host a charity event. If you can't find a society that suits you, we can help you set one up. To join a society, come along to a freshers fair or email the Sports, Societies and Freshers Officers.

Student governance and representation

The two student bodies of the College, King's College Student Union (KCSU) and King's College Graduate Union (KCGU), contribute to the intellectual, cultural, and social life of the College. Both the KCSU and KCGU have representatives on the committees dealing with the governance of the College, and both are involved in decisions on the allocation of funds between sporting, musical, drama, and other societies. The KCGU website is currently under construction.
