College is about expanding one s horizon, both in and out of the classroom.
One of the most fulfilling ways to experience college is to participate in one of the many clubs and organizations offered. Ferrum College is fortunate to have over 50 recognized clubs and organizations active on campus. The Student Organizations Incentive System, a unique feature of clubs at Ferrum College, is designed to encourage organizations to participate directly in the educational mission of the college, to build a sense of civic responsibility, and to complement the intentional democratic communities operating in the residence halls. Any student group whose purposes are congruent with Ferrum s educational mission may apply for official college recognition. The college governs all student organizations as similarly as possible, whether their membership is drawn together primarily by common theme, friendship, or some other bond.
