Ball State received its charter to establish a student chapter of The Wildlife Society in 1995. Members participate in wildlife-related field activities that enhance their education and provide professional opportunities. We invite students interested in careers in wildlife, zoology, natural resources, and ecology to become active early in their academic career.
