Office of Student Life
Join a Club
From academic and social, to identity-based and special concerns, the more than 30 student organizations at Kingsborough Community College reflect the diverse interests and activities of both day and evening students. Student organization involvement can introduce a student to new cultural experiences, help develop valuable leadership and organizational skills required in all aspects of life, and can lead to lasting friendships and community building. The number and types of student organizations change constantly as students’ interests and concerns change.
Student Life hosts an Involvement Fair every Fall and Spring semester specifically for interested students to interact with the student organizations in person or virtually.
