Student Life Office
Welcome
to the Student Life Office!
The
Student Life Office is your one-stop-shop for involvement.
What
you should know about Student Life:
We are dedicated to creating
fun and educational opportunities for the Bucks County Community
College Student Body. Getting Involved in student activities can
lead to success in many areas of life both during and after one's
term as a student.
Getting Involved brings the obvious benefits of
peer contact, productivity, and meaningful leisure time. But in
addition to that, students participating in activities, clubs, or
organizations also gain the opportunity for practical application
of their classroom skills to a working project and the experience
that can round out their résumés.
Getting
Involved in activities, clubs, or organizations is of proven
interest to employers. The personal contacts one makes when active
in student life programs may serve as the foundation for lifetime
friendships and networking sources.
The staff of the Student Life Office assists students in supplementing
academic experiences with experience in service, social, and recreational
pursuits. The Student Life Office not only helps students in programming
extracurricular activities, those viewed primarily as active, fun,
or social, but also helps in programming co-curricular activities,
those which are related to academic pursuits at the College and
which help improve skills in communication, organization, and leadership
and demonstrate acceptance of responsibility.
Here
are links to some of the Student Life Office responsibilities:
