What does the college experience mean to you?<\/p>\n
For some, it is all about the credits and classes, but for others, the extracurriculars are just as important \u2013 connecting with your peers, exploring future careers, creating social change, and widening your horizons are all an essential part of what it means to go to college.<\/p>\n
Whether that means, say, learning a new language or getting involved in the community, being a DJ on the radio or making your politics heard, SJCC\u2019s student organizations are one outlet for that college exploration.<\/p>\n
Club day, an event each semester dedicated to introducing the student populace to various clubs and student organizations on campus, is coming back to campus on Feb. 26 from 10 a.m. \u2013 12 noon.<\/p>\n
But if you want to get involved before then, we\u2019ve compiled a cheat sheet to the different groups at SJCC that are putting the \u201ccommunity\u201d back into community college.<\/p>\n
