Real Estate Society

The Real Estate Society is a 200-plus member student organization that—through industry outreach and monthly meetings—provides resources and information to students interested in or pursuing a career in real estate. Meetings are held the last Thursday of every month and feature real estate professionals who share their industry experience and insight with students. Real Estate Society events are open to all undergraduate and graduate students. Membership is free. To join the Society, please contact Lauren Lukens, chapter advisor, at 619-260-7619.
