1) How can I join a club?

It's easier than you think:

• Check the bulletin boards around campus for information about club meeting times.
• Go to the club's meeting.
• Ask about the club at the Campus Life Information Window in the Student Center  (Building # 1 on the campus map).
• Complete the Student Club and Organization Interest Form (print it out, complete it, send it to us and we'll pass it along to the appropriate club!)
• Leave your name and telephone number in the organization’s mailbox in the Office of Campus Life.
• Sign up with the group at the "Student Club and Organization Fair" held every semester.
• Visit the club’s office and let them know you’re interested in joining.
• Follow up with the groups you have chosen (here's a listing of our clubs).
• Be persistent - don’t give up! New members are always welcome.

2) When do the clubs meet?

Many of our clubs meet during the time periods referred to at CCM as "College Hour." These periods are Mondays from 11:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. and Thursdays from 2:30 p.m. to 3:45 p.m.

If you are planning to get involved in the various aspects of campus life at CCM (student clubs; intramurals; special programs, lectures and presentations, etc.), plan your academic schedule around these "College Hour" activity periods. Don't schedule a class during these time periods - Most classes scheduled during "College Hour" can be taken at other times.

3) Can I start a new club?

Of course you can! CCM also provides you with the opportunity to start new student clubs. Before a new organization can be officially recognized, the club must have a faculty or staff advisor, a constitution, a membership list of at least ten students, and a club leadership roster (president, secretary, treasurer, etc.). Assistance in preparing this paperwork can be obtained from  the Office of Campus Life staff members. 

You can also get more information on what is involved by reading the CCM Student Organization Guidebook and Policy Manual.

4) Why should I get involved?

Here are the "Top Five Reasons" : 

1. to learn and develop leadership skills such as decision making, problem solving, delegating and organizing; 
2. to become an important part of the CCM community, having your voice heard in campus decision making; 
3. to develop working relationships with faculty, administrators and friendships with fellow students; 
4. to get skills and experiences that will round out your resume (for the CCM graduate, a record of involvement in campus life is of proven interest to employers and the colleges to which you might transfer); 
5. and, of course, to have fun!

5) How can I get more information about getting involved?

Its easy - just contact the CCM Office of Campus Life or see one of the Campus Life staff members. We're here to help!
