The Office of Athletics & Campus Engagement promotes student development by supporting clubs, events, and activities designed to enrich the overall collegiate experience across all campuses. Students, faculty, and staff collaborate to create social, cultural, and recreational activities and programs that complement classroom experiences, offer opportunities for social interaction and intellectual and emotional growth, and develop leadership and career-related skills outside the classroom.
The Office supports a variety of clubs and organizations, co-curricular and co-sponsored cultural programs, student leadership programs, community service programs, multicultural awareness programs, and other student development and engagement programs. The Athletics & Campus Engagement team coordinates the activities of the Student Government Association, the student-run Pegasus literary magazine, and student theatre productions, and helps students to successfully navigate resources for planning, promoting, and executing campus events and programs.
The Office of Athletics & Campus Engagement is located in the Student Center (Room 1180) on the Marple Campus. The Student Center includes an open student lounge and provides office space for clubs and organizations.
Tobacco-Free Campus
Delaware County Community College has joined numerous other colleges in the region and beyond in an effort to promote health and wellness by going tobacco-free. The policy prohibits the use of any tobacco product (cigarettes, cigars, pipes, snuff, chewing tobacco, etc.), on College owned or leased property. It is intended to eliminate exposure to secondhand smoke and provide an environment supportive of tobacco-free lifestyles. More information and resources are available at www.dccc.edu/tobacco-free.
At Delaware County Community College, we offer a full range of clubs and organizations devoted to our students’ many interests — both inside and outside the classroom.
Are you looking for a club that links to your major? Consider the Business Society, Psychology Club, or other academic based clubs. To gain valuable hands-on experience in your field, look to The Communitarian student newspaper or the New Media Lab. Want to serve as the voice of the students and make a difference on campus? Join our Student Government Association. And if you want to connect with like-minded students, check out groups such as the Black Student Union, LGBTQ+ Club, or Multicultural Club.
