Campus Life and Student Organizations
Students are encouraged to participate in campus activities and student organizations that relate to their respective areas of study or interest. For more information about student organizations, contact Dana Albright at 575.769.4944 or dana.albright@clovis.edu.
Getting Involved
Students can get involved in a number of ways at Clovis Community College. One way to make an impact at CCC is to become a part of any of the Campus Activities Board (CAB) funded organizations. CAB is a great way to be active on campus—becoming involved may be easier than you think. In order to join CAB, students must have completed at least 15 credits at CCC with a minimum 2.5 GPA, and they must be enrolled at least part time in coursework. If you are interested in joining CAB, contact Dana Albright at 575.769.4944 or dana.albright@clovis.edu.
Campus Activities Board (CAB)
CCC’s Campus Activities Board provides a form of government for the supervision of student activities; provides a forum for the expression of student views and interests; maintains academic freedom, academic responsibility, and student rights; improves the cultural, social, and physical welfare of students; promotes
national and international understanding and fellowship at the student level; and fosters the recognition of the rights and the resulting responsibilities of students attending college, community, and among humanity.
In order to join CAB, students must have completed at least 15 credits at CCC with a minimum 2.5 GPA, and they must be enrolled at least part time in coursework. If you are interested in joining CAB, contact Dana Albright at 575.769.4944 or dana.albright@clovis.edu.
Annual Paint the Prairie Dawg Dash 5k Fun Run
Each year in the spring, the Campus Activities Board hosts a colorful 5k fun run on our campus, with proceeds benefitting their organization for future activities. Runners must compete in the race while colored powder is thrown at them, resulting in fun for the entire family. Participants are encouraged to run in costumes and prizes are given to the most creative runners. This race is held each April as a part of Community College Month.
Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society (PTK)
The purpose of Phi Theta Kappa International honor society is to recognize and encourage scholarship among two-year college students. To achieve this purpose, PTK provides opportunity for the development of leadership and service, for an intellectual climate for exchange of ideas and ideals, for lively fellowship for scholars, and
for stimulation of interest in continuing academic excellence. To encourage continued education, PTK offers opportunities to apply for over $87 million in scholarships from PTK, partnering senior colleges, universities and foundations.
