It’s great to get involved
One of the best parts of the college experience is getting to know your fellow students. One of the best ways to do this is to get involved with student organizations. At San Jac we have groups for just about everything you could want, from social and professional networking to cultural and religious interests to public service. Taking an active role in an organization can definitely heighten the fun and success you have while you’re here. But the contacts you make now can also serve you quite well long after graduation.
Check out all the organizations we currently have. If you’d like more information one of them or if you’re interested in starting a new one, contact the Coordinator of Student Life on South campus.
