<p>I was wondering if anybody participates as a board member or holds an executive office at your Community College?</p>
<p>I am also wondering if any Transfer Students, participate in the Student Government or if its too hard to get into as a Transfer student.</p>
<p>I myself participate on a student government board, and find it beneficial because I have learned many things and it has given me an interest to do more leadership activities...etc...</p>
<p>I would like to continue at UCLA or UCBerkeley....or at UCSD or UCSB....dunno if it will be easy to do with time commitments and everything though.</p>
<p>@ janethedoe: I may apply for Student Gov. at UCB if I get in. I really want to primarily focus on clubs relating to humanitarianism, peace, global student of sorts and the like. I have considered joining Student Government as well though. </p>
<p>However, I do not hold any position at my CCC.</p>
<p>my experience has been tremendous, i have always been passive, with exception to my high school protesting and club involvement. </p>
<p>i always wanted to do something and being on the Student Government helped me support humanitarianism causes around campus, spread multiculturalism and community involvement.
i sit on a board that funds student club events and i help decide important issues and funding allocation. we also sponsor and host student demonstrations, protests and all sorts of badass things</p>
<p>i can only imagine how much more cool it is at the UC level.</p>
<p>I am on the Student Government board at my community college.</p>
<p>i am in student govt too at my cc. i was excited at first when i started out. but of course, like any other student organization at community colleges, most of the other students involved were idiots who only did it to put on their resume/college apps. i stopped caring after a few meetings</p>
<p>I’m in UCR’s student govt. Honestly, being a transfer or not doesn’t matter much, except for the fact that getting into it had a lot to do with knowing a lot of people, which transfer students might not. It’s definitely a cool experience though</p>
<p>@lakerforever24 is there any other reason why someone would actually want to participate in a cc’s student government?</p>
<p>MeeHahn- How did you go about doing it, did you just fill out an application and have an interview? thanks for your information</p>
<p>Extention0- How are you finding your experience? </p>
<p>lakerforever24- I know what you mean…a couple guys just doze off and “yay” everything at our meetings. but there are students who do it to actually help out at my school, i am glad i am with a good group of kids.</p>
<p>Random_Monkey- How cynical of you. there are people who want to be a part of change, ive seen them.</p>
<p>@janethedoe haha I’m one of those kids who just shows up and dozes off, so I had to defend myself</p>
<p>Random_Monkey- there was this one guy who slept and snored through the whole thing and the president called an order to recognize that he was sleeping and everyone busted up laughing.</p>
<p>he was sexy, so if ur sexy its forgivable. lol…</p>
<p>i was on student gov’t at my CC for 2 years. after transfering to UCB, i lost all interest in it only because the people who do it here seem to be way more serious and diehard about business/law/whatever, than bringing a unique perspective/background to the table.</p>
<p>it seems like way more time/effort than at CC (which it should be, don’t get me wrong).</p>
