Center for Peer Education (CPE)
The Center for Peer Education is an undergraduate student led organization that provides prevention education to student peers about alcohol, tobacco, marijuana and other drugs, mental health and overall healthy decision making. We hope that through education and awareness, we can equip our peers with the necessary tools to make safe and responsible decisions in an effort to create a safe and healthy campus experience. www.unco.edu/cpe
Fraternity & Sorority Life (FSL)

Student Organizations at UNC range from professional, honorary, and academic, to social, cultural, political, and religious.
