Student Participation
in College Governance
Students have opportunities to participate in
the college decision-making process through
the Student Government Association and
Student Senate.
Student Government
Association
Student Government is composed of a group
of active students involved in representing
the interests of the Associated Students of
BCC on college governance committees and
programs. Participation allows a student to
work cooperatively with fellow students, faculty,
staff and administration. The BCC Student
Government is composed of the following
branches: Executive Board, Programming
Board and Student Senate.
Clubs and Organizations
In order for a club or organization to be
officially recognized, students must follow the
procedure for recognition developed by the
Student Activities Office and the Student
Government Association. Packets for recognition
are available in the Office of Student Activities,
room 126 in the Parker Center. Recognition
allows funding for events and the use of a
variety of college facilities. All clubs, in addition
to adhering to the stated purpose of the group,
are involved in campus service projects. Clubs
bring to the college a variety of events including
but not limited to speakers, films and
