General Membership
General members make up the largest portion of our organization, and we couldn’t be where we are today without them all. Attendance at meetings/events is highly encouraged, but not mandatory. So, don't stress about not being able to make it to some things.
If you are not interested in higher involvement, your general membership still grants you access to all of our membership exclusive benefits, discounts at the book store, or access to member-exclusive events! Click the button below to start your membership today!

BWS THON COMMITTEE
Joining the BWS THON committee is a great way to get involved with THON as we strive to provide our members with the opportunity to choose their level of involvement and dedication to the committee.
The amount of work one does for our THON committee is completely up to them and understood by the leadership. We want to provide our members with a way to be involved with THON but without the required responsibilities many other committees may have. We will typically meet biweekly, with the opportunity to attend an array of events in between.
We currently are paired with one Four Diamonds THON family, and are looking to adopt another very soon! If this committee interests you to any extent, please fill out the form at the button below to receive an email with additional information, as well as instructions on how to join! Please direct any immediate questions to our Director of Philanthropy, Maura Harnett, [email protected]

Programming Board
Our highest level of involvement is our Programming Board (PB)! Led by a twelve-person executive board, the PB is a team of roughly 60 student leaders recruited at the beginning of each Fall Semester.
PB houses the organization's seven committees (called prides) which report to a corresponding Executive Board member and represents both the Blue & White Society and the Penn State Alumni Association.
Members of the Programming Board will be leading one of the largest organizations on campus and interacting with influential staff and alumni throughout their term. These positions range from general member recruiting and social media development to planning campus-wide events with a $40,000+ budget and many more positions in a variety of other fields.
Together we meet at least once a week, while often attending/working on other events and projects. Further details on each committee can be found by clicking the button below. Applications for Programming Board are closed for the year, but its not too late to become a general member!
