Campus Activities
San Jacinto College believes that students acquire many of their most lasting impressions in college in co-curricular and extracurricular activities. The College provides a variety of campus activities to meet the interests and needs of all students. These campus activities enrich the college experience through a wide variety of social, cultural, intellectual, and recreational programs that complement the students' classroom experience.
Each campus has a resource center that oversees campus activities. The Office of Student Life at Central Campus, the Office of Student Development at North Campus, and the Student Life Office at South Campus have information on dozens of student organizations, fine arts events, festivals, lecture series, community service projects, and leadership development programs. Student organizations are a major component of the student life and activities program. Belonging to a professional, social, cultural, or special interest group on campus allows a student to acquire new interests, develop leadership and management skills, and meet new people.
Participating in extracurricular programs can make a difference between getting behind and getting ahead in college and in a career. Many employers see campus involvement as a key indicator of a student's potential for success with his/her company. Therefore, students are encouraged to participate in campus activities for both personal and professional enrichment.
