Students publish newspapers and other publications and have the opportunity to join a variety of clubs.

Policy on Guest Speakers

Student groups have the right to hear speakers of their choice in accordance with the rules set by the College. It may not, however, be assumed that speakers invited by students represent the views of the College.

Student Government

Student Government exists to provide governance and advocacy on behalf of the student body. Governing involves making decisions and recommending policies that affect the student body as well as working with faculty, and administrators in various committees to ensure responsible decision making on behalf of the student body. All students are elected for one-year terms during the Spring Semester. Intention forms are available at the Office of Campus Life.

Participation in College Governance

Students shall comprise a permanent one-third of the total membership of the Senate, based upon combining the total number of voting faculty and voting administration representatives. Senate meetings are open to all students and staff at the College. Students are also represented on College committees. The student senators comprise the Student Conference.
