STUDENT ACTIVITIES
  Student Activities
Experience and involvement in student government are provided for the students of Skyline College under the regulations of the governing board of the San Mateo County Community College District.

Students have an opportunity to develop skills in group leadership, to learn techniques of democratic government and citizenship, as well as to develop responsibility and desirable life habits and attitudes. The purposes of the Associated Students of Skyline College (ASSC) are:

1. To promote the general welfare of the students.

2. To assure equality of opportunity among the students.

3. To offer an experience in practice of American democratic government.

4. To encourage student participation in the planning and direction of student activities as permitted under the California Education Code and the policies of the Board of Trustees.

The governing body of the Associated Students will coordinate the activities of all student clubs and organizations of the College. The student activities program is an important part of the educational experience at Skyline College. All registered students are encouraged to participate in the various offerings of the activity program.

With the advice and assistance of the Coordinator of Student Activities, the Student Council directs and supervises all student activities in which the College is represented. Because the direct financial support for many of the activities comes from the purchase of Student Body Cards, students wishing to support these activities will have the opportunity to purchase cards at registration or in Bldg. 2, Room 2202.

Members of the ASSC who purchase Student Body cards receive the following benefits:

1. Free admission to all regular home athletic games.

2. Admission to social and other activities at rates to be determined by the Student Council.

3. Discount rates for selected services on campus and in the community.

4. Opportunity to hold office.
