Student Opportunities

Organizations

The Gaylord College is home to a variety of student groups that cover all aspects of our majors and professions. Each group is represented on the college’s Student Leadership Council and each group adds to the college, making us a richer and more diverse place to prepare for a career. In addition, student organizations provide each JMC student an opportunity develop leadership skills and get involved in important projects on campus and participate in many other activities, both locally and nationally. During the past year, students involved with groups in the Gaylord College took trips to various regional and national locations, helped charitable causes and helped attract a record number of alumni back to campus.
