 One way to actively enter
student life is through participation in student activities. All full- and
part-time students are encouraged to become involved in student activities, which include
fun-filled educational, cultural, and recreational programs and events. Student
activities organizations and clubs are run by students for students, and are funded by a
portion of the consolidated fee.
 Student activities provide an opportunity
to develop leadership skills, express your creativity, and form friendships while serving
the community and learning more about yourself. The time and commitment
involved vary from activity to activity. Decide which is best for you. Many
activities such as speakers, discussions, and workshops complement academics.
 Each campus has a comprehensive student
activities program. Student activities comprises a Student Government
Association, Program Council, student publications, and a variety of clubs based on
student interests. In addition, the Student Activities Office sponsors special
events such as health fairs, cultural programs, and festivals on each campus.
 Student activities are advertised on bulletin boards,
video monitors, the campus newspaper, and other outlets throughout the campus. You
may also contact the Student Activities Office on your campus to find out how you can
become involved. The Student Activities staff on each campus advises student
groups as they plan and conduct activities. If you have an idea for an event
you'd like to have happen on campus, let them know. They will be happy to work
with you.
The Rockville Campus Student Activities Suite is where you'll find
the offices of the director of student activities, club coordinator, administrative aide,
conference room, Montgomery Advocate /Student newspaper office, radio station WROC, and
Student Government, as well as space for your club or organization members to meet and a
computer room for club members to work on flyers, reports, and other College/Club
business. The Student Activities Suite is located on the first floor of the
Campus Center, behind the cafeteria. For info, call 301-279-5092 (Voice) or
