Extracurricular Activities and Programs

Group Activities

The College offers a wide range of extracurricular activities and programs. These include departmental, religious, social, political, and athletic activities; creative events, such as art displays and literary, musical, and dramatic performances; and extracurricular lectures on varied topics. 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 consists of The Campus Association for Student Activities (C.A.S.A.), which plans and administers programs and allocates funds for student groups, and the Student Conference, which represents students' interests in the Lehman College Senate.

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.
