The College Republicans is an active campus organization that sponsors speakers, voter registration drives, and political debates. The Club is very active in federal, state and local elections and encourages students to become deeply involved in the American political process. A Constitution governs the activity of the Club as well as the process by which Club officers are selected. According to Article II the College Republican Constitution, four broad purposes are served by the Club:
- To make known the principles of the Republican Party among members of the Sacred Heart University campus and community
- To aid in the election of Republican candidates at all levels of government
- To encourage and assist in the organization and active functioning of the Republican Party at local, state, and national levels
- To develop political skills and leadership abilities among Republican students as preparation for future service by them to the Party and the community
