The Office of College Life

About
The Office of College Life [OCL] promotes student engagement and involvement through dynamic co-curricular activities that complement and enhance each student’s academic experience and personal development. The office believes that students not only have the opportunity to learn within the classroom but also, gain knowledge through life experiences and networking.
Specifically, this office works closely with college departments and student-led clubs/ organizations, to provide the college with cultural, educational, and social programs. In addition, the Office serves as a planning resource for campus events and arranges leadership training for students.
