Get Involved!
Many career programs have developed clubs related to their program objectives. Each club has a faculty advisor and provides educational experiences for members.
In order for a club to be approved by the Student Government Association, it needs to have a constitution and an advisor. Many programs have developed clubs which not only promote Lakeshore Technical College but also help various civic organizations by conducting surveys, collecting money for charities, giving scholarships, and helping with workshops. Members of these clubs support their common career goals by attending seminars, taking tours, participating in state and national activities, setting up programs, and becoming acquainted with various organizations of their profession. Assistance is given to program-related clubs through the Student Government Association.
