Student Clubs & Organizations

Student Government Association

Student Government Association (SGA) is “your voice” and “your advocate.” It consists of the Executive Board and the Student Senate who meet twice each month. Every activity fee-paying student is a member of the SGA and represented by a voting senator from each curriculum area or a representative from each student organization, and two ex-officio members from the Basic Skills programs. SGA offers members the opportunity to build leadership and communication skills, to learn work-related responsibilities, and to create an efficient/effective office environment. SGA members participate in community and student service programs, SGA conference meetings, intercollegiate contests, student activities, socials, and public speaking events.

For more information please email sga@carteret.edu.

Nursing Club

Nursing school is so challenging as it is, I think having the NSNA at our school presents a unique opportunity for student nurses to feel like they aren’t alone, that there is a sense of community here. We are always looking for new members, so please feel free to reach out if you’d like more information!

Radiography Club

The Radiography Club provides a means for students enrolled in the radiography program to increase their involvement on the college campus while at the same time making others aware of the career opportunities in this Medical Imaging Field. It is an avenue that promotes leadership experiences and professionalism within the program overall, as well as encouraging local community service that provides real-world experiences and creates a positive impact both on and off-campus.

Respiratory Care Club

The Respiratory Care Club accepts membership of all CCC students but membership typically consists of students that are in the respiratory therapy program. During the first semester, the club elects two representatives. This type of social connection builds unity among the students so that they can become more team-oriented to obtain their professional goals. Students learn organizational skills through various activities and the importance of professional activities such as conferences and belonging to a professional organization.
