What is the Honors Club all about?
The Honors Club at Sacramento City College is the umbrella club that covers all students participating in a number of community related service activities. We provide support for student travel to conferences and conventions to present papers and receive awards. We also promote academic events such as lecture series, and evangelize to high school students about honors programs. Past service projects have involved the national PTK's focus on the environment, student's interest in alleviating homelessness, fundraising for local organizations and scholarships. Last year we focused on the dynamics of power in Darfur and on a congressional bill which threatened marine life. Our efforts resulted in a Scholarship award. Check out past achievements by club members.
How can I participate?
Just show up to one of the meetings on Thursdays at 12:00 noon in Rodda North room 220. Listen to the activities and if something interests you, volunteer to help out. It's just that simple.
