Student Handbook: Campus Living and Learning

Student IDs and Compliance

Student ID cards are provided to students enrolled in six (6) or more credit hours in a semester. The student ID card admits students to numerous student activities, permits students to check out items in the library, and affords other opportunities limited to currently enrolled students. Students must report to the Student Success Center within the first two weeks of classes with the pink finalized registration form, a current address, and Social Security number to obtain a picture ID. Lost or late cards will be assessed a $10.00 processing fee. Community and College IDs may also be issued upon request to those who are not full-time students, and at no charge. Proof of a current address and phone number is required. These IDs are used for the library resources and do provide student activity privileges. False identification, willful refusal to produce the card, and/or to identify one’s self to College personnel, dining hall staff, or security personnel will result in disciplinary action.

Student Government Association

Many functions of the College are sponsored by SGA. Not only does SGA govern the student body, it also helps organize and carry out social functions and activities, sanctions clubs and campus organizations, and makes policy recommendations to improve student life. The Student Government Association is composed of two elected officers (a president chosen from the sophomore class and a vice president chosen from the freshman class) and any other student wishing to be a member. A secretary is elected from the membership. SGA meets bi-monthly throughout the school year. For more information on SGA, contact the Recruiter/Event Coordinator.

Clubs and Organizations
