What does the Jacksonville Chapter Do?

The Jacksonville Chapter is one of the most active young SSUAA Chapters in the nation. Our signature annual staple events include our fish fry, Jacksonville Gateway Football Classic Golf Tournament and Christmas Social Party. The Chapter is also heavily involved with local college fairs, recruiting on behalf of the University. We are committed to preserving the legacy of our alma mater through financial support, recruitment, and scholarships. Additionally, we aim to create and maintain a network of Tigers in Jacksonville and utilize that network to foster camaraderie and success amongst Tigers.
