An important part of college life is the personal enrichment students gain outside the classroom through student activities. Getting involved in campus activities gives students many educational experiences, leadership opportunities and the chance to interact with other students and faculty/staff members in an informal setting.
Organizations serve all members of the campus community. More than 40 clubs offer students the opportunity to explore special interests. Many of these clubs are directly affiliated with fields of study and augment classroom experiences.
Student Life and Leadership staff members assist students with all aspects of planning and implementing programs. Clubs and organizations operate in conjunction with the Student Life and Leadership office and a club advisor.

"The Leadership Education & Development program offers opportunities for Mercer students to partake in teamwork, community service and personal growth through unique events and speaking engagements. Our Speakers Series hosts interesting guests who describe their journeys and experiences in different areas of society. Past speakers have included legislative members, business owners and published authors.
The program is open for any student who would like to learn how to effect positive change in their community through either volunteering in on-campus events, attending the presentations or proposing an event/activity that can be facilitated for the benefit of all students."

Student Government Association (SGA) - The governing body of all students enrolled at the college. Through the SGA, students have a voice on campus. SGA is responsible for the formation and funding of all clubs and for students' representation on the standing committees of the college.
For further details about the SGA, please email sga@mccc.edu
If you are looking for an activity or club and you don't see it here, Mercer welcomes the opportunity to start new clubs. To charter a club, you need a membership list of at least 10 students, a faculty advisor, a club officer list, and a constitution. Student Government Association (SGA) and Student Life and Leadership staff members will help prepare the constitution. Once these requirements are met, the SGA will vote to charter the club at its next scheduled meeting.
For information about joining any of these clubs or starting a new club please contact our club coordinator Jeannette Clugsten at (609) 570-3434 or e-mail clugstej@mccc.edu.
The Student Life and Leadership Department promotes student involvement. Clubs and organizations offer students the opportunity to explore special interests. For further information, contact our club coordinator Jeannette Clugsten at (609) 570-3434 or e-mail clugstej@mccc.edu.
