Iowa City is Liberal, but you don't have to be!

The Best Party On Campus!

The University of Iowa College Republicans exist to promote conservative and Republican ideals, foster strong student leadership, develop life-long friendships, and most importantly: TO HAVE FUN!!! All Republicans or politically interested students are welcome to attend our meetings, join the club, participate in our many social events, help further the agenda and goals of the party and club, and elect candidates that will promote our positive message. Check out our calendar to see what we have coming up! We meet in 61 Schaeffer Hall every Tuesday at 9 pm. If you have any questions, please contact us!
