About our organization:
Many people throughout the world are familiar with 4-H. The dedication to the betterment of the Head, Heart, Hands and Health practiced by 4-H'ers doesn't stop when you reach the age of 19, instead it is only a stepping-stone into a bright future filled with leadership, community service, travel, and college memories that will last a lifetime.
History:
Collegiate 4-H began in 1916 on the Oklahoma State University campus as an "after-dinner club" for students who had enjoyed a rewarding career in 4-H and wanted to get together with friends to relive their 4-H days.
In 1971, the organization officially formed into what is now known as the National Collegiate 4-H Organization. Our official symbol is the 4-H clover capped by a Mortar Board to indicate our graduation from 4-H into an institution of higher learning.
Membership:
Collegiate 4-H gives college students a morally responsible peer group with a common background and similar interests to support each other.
The organization also opens its doors to those who have not experienced 4-H as a youth.
Any person enrolled as a student at Texas Tech University is eligible for membership in the organization. Our membership spans across ALL majors, schools, ages and races.
If you would like to become a member of the Collegiate 4-H Club at Texas Tech University, please visit the contact page on our site and e-mail one of the officers for more information.
