The Western Electronic (Esports) Gaming Association is a community for students on campus who enjoy playing video games, and who like to meet and socialize with other gamers. WEGA runs a wide variety of events throughout the year – tournaments and other competitions for those who love to compete, more casual gaming nights to make connections and enjoy games together, as well as more casual social events to build a community.

WEGA also helps to run a number of esports teams across a wide variety of titles. If you’re interested in playing your game at the highest level, we’d love to help connect you with other students looking to do the same.

Association of Role Players

About us:

The Western Association of Role Players is a vibrant community with the goal of encouraging the enjoyment of tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs). These are verbal storytelling games that you play with dice and paper and a group of your friends! We have a wide variety of events to help folks find games to join, to learn more about TTRPGs, and to foster community. Our year starts with Introcon, which is free for everyone to attend. Gamekeepers will pitch their games, and you get to chat with them and pick a game you’d like to join. Or you can be the one to pitch your game and gather players! After that, we host a number of one-shot conventions, where we gather to play themed one-shots that our members have put together. We also partake in a multi-university game night called Dungeons, Dragons and Donations, to raise money for charity! You can also come learn more about TTRPGs and how to better your skills as a player and gamekeeper in our WARP workshops. And this year, we’ll have some extra surprise activities that we can’t wait to share with you. Come roll some dice with us this year!

About us:

Welcome to Western Aviatrix! Our mission is to connect students who share a passion for aviation by creating an equitable, diverse, and inclusive space. We aim to inspire students to pursue careers in aviation, regardless of their background or identity. With less than 20% of aviation professionals – whether pilots, air traffic controllers, aircraft maintenance engineers, educators, or managers – identifying as women, we are committed to changing this.

We also strive to support other underrepresented groups, including BIPOC individuals and members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, to ensure they feel a sense of belonging in aviation. To achieve this, our club hosts social events to foster connections among members, offer educational events centered on aviation, and encourage participation in community outreach to inspire the next generation and those interested in joining the field.

Our executive team:
Angel Abraham – President
Vanessa Waugh – VP Events
Emily Luong – VP Communication
Rhea Kollias – VP Finance
Alysha Reddy – VP Membership
Maya Kumar – VP Administration

About us:

As we all know, university life can be very stressful. Tea Club is the de-stressor club of Western! Tea Club aims to provide a cozy atmosphere, where students can relax as they grab a cup of tea. We host information sessions, where members can learn about how to brew a perfect cup of tea, different varieties of tea, and more! By the end of the year, we hope our members will not only have created lasting friendships, but have also garnered a greater appreciation for tea. Typically, we hold frequent events during the year, creating opportunities for students to socialize (tea party, field trips, guest speakers, game/movie nights, study sessions, etc.) It’s super chill and full of great people, so join us for some quali-tea time! 🙂

If you did improv at high school, or if you’re interested in learning good performance skills then come on down! No previous experience required. We’ve been asked to do workshops for business clubs on improv skills too! It’s a great way to work on staying cool under pressure. We also do shows!

Write Club: This is where the written word gets awesome. Here we write sketches, videos, stand-up and anything else. It’s a smaller, laid back and packed with hillarity. Looking to workshop a short play you’ve written? Punch up a sketch? Make a hillarious YouTube video? WE DO IT ALL. It’s a great place to practice creative writing and collaborative stuff. The best part? We have a huge show where we put it all on!

The Improv Team: This is a dedicated group of students who represent Western in competitions around Southern Ontario and Quebec against other schools (Such as McGill, Brock and UofT). We hold try-outs in October, and have a final team of 8-10 people. We do plenty of training sessions beforehand though, and have taken on people with experience and people who just started.
