Student Life and Leadership Development
North Campus Student Life and Leadership Development is your starting point for getting involved on campus through student government, events, clubs and organizations! Joining a club or organization is a great way to meet people with similar interests, increase your leadership skills, give back to your community, and have fun. If you do not see a club or organization that interests you, start your own. Office cubical space is available to active clubs and organizations. Visit the Clubs and Organizations Room (E-227, Building E on the second floor, above Enrollment Services) for more information.
The Recreation Room (E-235, Building E on the second floor, above Enrollment Services) provides you with a place to relax, meet new people and study with friends. You’ll also find comfortable furniture, satellite television, billiards, foosball, table tennis, board games, a juke box, video games, group study areas, meeting rooms, as well as useful information on student health insurance, bus schedules and more.
We bring a wide range of entertainment to the campuses. From musicians and dancers, to lectures, discussions or art exhibits, a long list of performers appear on the Florida Community College stage or other venues. Attending an event might even help your studies — many of these opportunities have direct connections with your courses.
