Student Organizations
American Society of Civic Engineers -
Contact person Tyson Bogumill - email -tbogumill -is-at- carroll -dot- edu
ASCE: is a national organization that started about 150 years ago when the twelve founders came together to develop a professional society that promoted growth and learning in the field of engineering. Today, ASCE represents over 123,000 civil engineers and is the worldwide leader for advancements in the field of civil engineering. The club continues to live up to its founding objectives, providing knowledge for professional engineers and improving engineering practices across the nation.
Carroll's ASCE chapter is comprised of several engineering students and a few professional and academic advisors. We meet as a club on a monthly basis and do several projects throughout the school year. We organize networking opportunities with professional engineers and firms for our members, and the national organization has become a great resource for us as we continue on in our studies here at Carroll. Our big annual project is Concrete Canoe Competition that takes place at the ASCE Regional Conference every spring. A team of ASCE members gets together to design and construct a canoe made of concrete and reinforcement, and the boat is judged and raced against several other universities from the Northwestern United States. The Concrete Canoe Competition is a favorite event for all students involved and provides an opportunity to get hands on engineering experience. Aside from the canoe, Carroll's ASCE also performs engineering related community service projects in the area to help do our part in giving back. We have adopted a stretch of Montana Interstate that the club routinely cleans and we have also participated in Habitat for Humanity here in Helena.

Men Upholding the Dignity of Women on Campus (MUDWOC).MUDWOC (Men Upholding the Dignity of Women on Campus)
MUDWOC is a men's club all about promoting the human person, in particular, relationships between men and women. We believe in promoting a healthy and safe environment for relationships to grow and prosper through enjoyable events. We also, as stated in our name, take specific concern for upholding the dignity of women, which can be downplayed in our modern society. We hope to promote a greater awareness of women's struggles and rights. Sometimes this will take the form of publication and speaking, on subjects such as: rape, eating disorders, pornography, and any other relevant topics for a college campus. Anyone is invited to participate in this group, although the club formed right now is all men, we encourage women to be involved and hope someday to have a leader who will direct an affiliate women's club. The philosophy behind the gender specific club is to show that men are serious about this and hope to show women that we take this very seriously. There are similar clubs all over the U.S. on college campuses with the same philosophy: "Men create a lot of the problems, so we need to be the ones' to stand up and change things."
The way we attempt to reach out is through a variety of events. Some are just fun to promote healthy and safe relationships. Others, we are more serious and will focus on specific issues. We do this through videos, publication, and speakers. We also put on a variety of small events simply to make a statement to women that we care.
