Organizations & Activities
Student Organizations
Student organizations at WNCC may vary from year-to-year in accordance with changes
in student interests and needs. Some organizations are primarily social, while others are
academic, professional, recreational, or service-oriented. All formal student organizations
are required to have a constitution that conforms to the educational objectives and
administrative regulations of the College. Student Government: Cougar Council, Student
Senate, and Student Council are the chartering bodies for new organizations. To become
officially recognized by the College, new organizations must submit their constitution to
the student governing body of the appropriate campus, the Student Services Council, and
the College Council for approval. Any funds collected through the student organizations
must be deposited and dispensed through the WNCC Business Office. All students can
take advantage of the organizations that meet their own needs and interests.
