Clubs & Organizations

Student organizations have a significant impact in providing effective learning environments for students, preparing them to live and work in a global community. In addition to building lasting friendships, student organizations provide many benefits including serving as a medium for academic discourse, personal growth, leadership development and community engagement.

Students are encouraged to explore currently recognized student clubs/organizations before establishing one of their own. When a group exists and holds the same purpose and goals as another student group, the Student Activities Office encourages students to combine resources to maximize a student group's potential growth and development. If, after careful assessment, you think your interests are not represented in one of Northeast's existing clubs/organizations, we encourage you to create and establish one of your own.

Interested in Starting a New Club or Organization, NEMCC encourages students to create student groups when the group they are establishing enhances and complements the College’s mission and goals.
