The Entomology Club was founded in 1921 as the Popenoe Entomology Club, named for Edwin A. Popenoe, the founder of entomology at K-State.

Club activities include, but are not limited to, providing: opportunities for fellowship among students and for travel grant assistance; public education through demonstrations at the KSU Insect Zoo, KSU Open House, and area schools; outreach to the community by activities supporting 4-H and FFA youth clubs.  Special Entomology Department activities include: hosting the fall picnic and enriching the seminar series by sponsoring a noted entomologist as a speaker.
