Supporting ODU And The Partnership With EVMS While Enriching Friendship Throughout The Community!
INTEREST GROUPS
Fun With A Purpose
Our Interest Groups are an excellent way to meet and form friendships with fellow ODUMCA members. We currently have multiple groups that fall into several different interest categories.
Our Interest Groups enable us to have fun as we spend time playing games, reading books, dining out, walking with friends and touring fascinating locations both on and off campus.
Our Interest Group Director is Juanita Raisor. For questions please contact her via email at
