The co-curricular aspects of college life are an integral part of a liberal arts education. The experiences that occur outside of the formal classroom setting provide valuable opportunities for social, emotional and intellectual growth. Lake Erie College offers a broad range of activities designed to appeal to a variety of academic and personal interests. These resources are available to all Lake Erie College students. All Lake Erie College students are encouraged to participate in campus clubs and organizations as a means of enriching their college experience. There are a variety of clubs for individual and group enjoyment. If a club is not currently established, consistent with opportunities available here at Lake Erie College’s small community, students are encouraged to organize new clubs or organizations of interest to them and other students.
Students needing assistance for any variety of problems should feel free to seek help from any member of the Student Life staff. Communications between personnel and the student will remain confidential. Further information about local referral agencies for medical or personal concerns can be obtained in the Student Experience Suite, Holden Center 120.
Activities
Students are encouraged to attend and assist in the planning of campus activities. Campus Activities Board (CAB) is a student run organization that plans activities on and off campus. CAB membership is open to all Lake Erie College Students. It is a great way to meet other students and plan activities that are interesting and fun. CAB provides entertainment through game shows; casino night; free movie tickets; karaoke; coffee houses; bands; video gaming tournaments and various other events.
Clubs and Organizations
Each year, any student group, club or organization that wishes to be officially recognized as a Lake Erie College student club or organization must file an application for recognition with the Student Government Association. Only those student organizations that have been approved for the current academic year by the Student Experience Suite and the Student Government Association will be considered officially recognized during the academic year and eligible for funding.
