At Bakersfield College, Student Organizations (StudOrgs) serve a valuable and educational function offering students the opportunity to join in academic/professional, honor, political, service, social, cultural and/or spiritual groups, and societies. StudOrgs allow students to assume various leadership roles that provide insight to further the mission of the group and contribute to the personal development and enjoyment of members within the context of the broader teaching, research, and service missions of BC. These opportunities offer students a chance to become more involved with their campus community, adding an experiential component to their educational experience.
StudOrgs are an entity that is initiated and directed by a group of current students who share a common vision in promoting an extra-curricular or co-curricular mission that enriches campus or community life and personal development. StudOrgs must be registered with BCSGA through the Office of Student Life in accordance with the StudOrgs Conditions and Procedures.
Active membership in registered StudOrg shall be limited to registered students from the campuses (this includes the Delano Campus). Active members may participate at all levels in the organization’s activities (beyond membership registration and payment of financial obligations) as determined by the organization. Membership shall be on a completely volunteer basis and shall not be the basis of academic credits nor shall any coercion be used forcefully to maintain membership. The designated advisor and designees of the StudOrgs are considered a part of the StudOrgs membership.
