Rotaract is the collegiate level of Rotary International, an organization which focuses on service above self. Students in Rotaract work together to create opportunities for professional development while focusing on campus, community, and global needs. Networking with the local Rotary Club–members of the business and professional community–provides students with opportunities to expand their knowledge base, explore careers, and create positive connections. The Rotaract Club of Shepherd University is sponsored by the Shepherdstown Rotary Club and was founded in 2005.
