Cyclone Civics is working to develop innovative co-curricular activities through the sponsorship of events, lectures, and forums, and co-sponsorship grants.

Co-sponsorship by Cyclone Civics is open to all Iowa State units, registered student organizations, and sororities and fraternities. Campus events (such as lectures, workshops, and fine arts performances) and high-impact student experiences (such as field trips, attendance at conferences, and simulations like Model UN or Model EU) that promote one or more aspect of civic education and free expression are eligible for co-sponsorship.
