Student Eligibility for Office and Activities
A student must be a “student in good standing” to participate in BMCC activities. These activities include seeking a seat on the Student Council and traveling as part of a BMCC sponsored event, such as the annual AIHEC Student Conference, transfer trips to other colleges and universities, and club activities. Good standing is defined as making satisfactory progress toward a degree, at least 70% attendance in all registered classes, no outstanding financial obligations to the College, no misconduct issues as defined in the Student Handbook, and, if seeking election to the Student Council, you must carry at least an eight (8) college credit load.
Student Council
The Student Council at BMCC may consist of full and part-time students, with the exception of BMCC employees. Student Council officers include a president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, and sergeant-at-arms. Officers are elected from the student body-at-large at the beginning of the fall semester each academic year. The Student Council President also represents the students as an ex-officio member of the BMCC Board of Regents.
The Student Council provides BMCC students the opportunity to participate in self-government. The objective of the Student Council is to teach its members, through active participation in college government, responsibilities and duties to their fellow students and to the college. The Student Council sponsors extracurricular activities and promotes student interest in the college as a whole. It fosters understanding among the faculty, students, and administration and can serve as a student representative when issues important to the student body need to be brought to the attention of the administration.
Student Activities/Clubs
BMCC promotes many student activities and events. Students are encouraged to participate in all activities and clubs sponsored by the Student Council and Student Services personnel.
