Each semester, Oxy clubs, organizations, and departments come together to help students explore involvement opportunities, identify shared interests, and exhibit student support services. Join us at the iFair to network and get a better sense of what this semester has to offer.

Join Occidental College’s Moore Lab of Zoology and FEAST's Bruce Steele Garden celebrate the vibrant bird and plant diversity of our city.

We'll be gathering outside of the garden to spot migratory birds that visit our campus during the spring season. The FEAST (Food, Energy and Sustainability Team) members will be leading guided tours of the student-run urban garden where you can learn about their dynamic agricultural programming.
