Alpha of Clovia
ALPHA OF CLOVIA Cooperative Leadership House at Kansas State University since 1931
Alpha of Clovia is a unique all-female living and learning environment for undergraduate students at K-State, located just a block off-campus with origins in 4-H. We are an approved living community that meets the first-year residency exemption, meaning our members get to live in-house starting their freshman year. Since 1931, our members have embraced the ideals of sisterhood, accountability, sincerity, and growth. Clovia gives women the opportunity to grow their leadership and personal skills while making friendships that last a lifetime!
Why Clovia?
Clovia gives women the opportunity to grow their personal skills while making friendships that last a lifetime! The girls gain independence by applying their leadership skills to managing the operations of the house and sharing in the day-to-day functions, making it feel like a home. A live-in House Director provides support and direction to members when needed, along with an Alum Advisor team that regularly attends Wednesday house meetings.
Leadership
The members of Clovia have the opportunity to serve in various leadership roles. The main officer team is responsible for the house and ensuring everything runs smoothly. In addition to this, girls have the opportunity to serve in appointed offices for a shorter term to assist the officers and additionally contribute to the house and sisterhood. There is always an opportunity to grow your leadership skills and many opportunities to fit everyone’s interests.
Community
Living at Clovia provides women with an immediate community where life-long connections are built. Members experience a support system that eases the sometimes intimidating transition to college. Members are paired with “Big Sisters” that serve as mentors while navigating Clovia and school.
Throughout the school year, members participate in various activities such as Homecoming, house retreats, and philanthropies to grow their connections with the K-State community.
Home Away From Home
Not only does Clovia provide its members with a house full of connections but a home where girls feel a sense of belonging and comfort. Members have access to a full kitchen, recreation room, and study room, just to name a few rooms in the Clovia House! The women of Clovia value accountability and individual success for all members, encouraged by the care of our sisterly bonds. Within the house, members grow their skills of responsibility and cooperation that will apply to their future.
