DJS Clubs

The mission of Birders of PLU is to promote community-building at the interpersonal and the ecological levels. Through the observation of birds, the club seeks to connect students with their environmental and community contexts, as well as with their fellow animals. Birding is a mutual practice of observation, conversation, education, and activism across species lines, and the Birders of PLU aim to co-create a flourishing multispecies future.
