What are student activities?
Student Activities are the other side of college life, the extracurricular activities outside of the classroom. In addition to attending and participating in events, you can join a club or organization that plans the events or run for an elected position and tackle some campus issues.

Student clubs at MassBay include everything from Student Government, to cultural groups to honorary societies and academic groups.  Taking a leadership role in any of these groups offers you the opportunity to learn many skills.  You can learn how to budget money, implement and evaluate projects and programs, manage and resolve conflict, communicate publicly, develop critical thinking skills, improve interpersonal skills, develop an ability to work in groups of diverse individuals, reflect on your professional abilities, understand community responsibility and most importantly, have FUN!

How can I get involved?
MassBay organizations are open to all students. If you are interested in joining a club, visit the Office of Student Activities room 130 Wellesley Hills or at the Front Desk in Framingham.

With MassBay’s diverse population, you are bound to find a club that interests you, however we are always excited to get new clubs started, visit the Student Activities Office to get started!

Why should I get involved?
Some students get involved to make friends and have connections to their peers outside of class. Others do it to learn valuable skills and apply what they are learning in the classroom. And many get involved because it is a fulfilling and a GREAT experience. Research has shown that involved students report feeling more connected to the campus and have better relationships with faculty. By being a part of their college, having a voice, and helping to bring about change, students feel much more proud of their time in college.

So what clubs are there?
There are a lot of clubs at MassBay. Some stay active year to year and new ones are started every day. Following are descriptions of the current organizations (as of Spring 2009).
