About Us
The Activities Board is Carnegie Mellon University's largest student-run programming board, all events funded by your student activities fee. Since the late 70s, we’ve served and continue to serve the Carnegie Mellon community, bettering the student experience one event at a time. As a part of student government, the organization is comprised of five main committees: Concerts, Events, Films, Publicity, and Speakers. Tech is also a committee in the Activities Board, governed seperately from the AB organization as a whole.
We generally hold events at least two times a month during the school year, if not much more. Learn more about our five committees below by hovering (or clicking if you're on mobile) on each image below:
