Cornell University Chapter of the American Meteorological Society (CCAMS)

The American Meteorological Society advances the atmospheric and related sciences, technologies, applications, and services for the benefit of society. CCAMS is an organization founded to support students in the major of Atmospheric Science and share their joy for weather with the Cornell community. As a group, they have traveled to conferences and professional (climate) centers. While these activities won’t be possible until the pandemic subsides, they are excited to host virtual forecasting nights and other events over the course of the semester.

Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Student Association (EASSA)

EASSA is the undergraduate club open to EAS majors, minors, and other students interested in earth and atmospheric sciences. Their goal is to provide academic resources for undergrads and help students build connections with each other and faculty across the department. During the semester, they organize information sessions to help students develop skills to further their careers, as well as social events to build a sense of community. In previous years, EASSA has brought students on geology-related field trips as well. This semester, EASSA hopes to provide undergrads with a strong sense of belonging as they enter and explore the major, with virtual info sessions on graduate school preparation and undergraduate course selection, as well as social events like Netflix watch parties and more!

Snee Graduate Organization (SGO)

Snee Graduate Organization seeks to provide a medium for professional and social interaction both within and outside of EAS. They typically meet once a month to discuss various issues pertinent to the grad student experience and plan events as a group. In the past this has all occurred in person, with meetings typically taking place in the Snee Hall reading room (with food). For the foreseeable future all meetings and events will take place virtually. They have had success in previous months with virtual happy hours, trivia nights, and movie viewings but are open to any suggestions you may have.
