Student Activities



Student Activities Program

The Student Activities program at Bay College is a very important part of college life. Activities and events planned by the various College clubs and organizations do much to supplement academic activities. Through involvement in the Student Activities program, students are provided with opportunities for vocational growth, leadership training, community service, and personal development. The College Student Activities program, Academic Support Services and Commencement are funded through collection of the student development and success fee.
