Therefore, the College sponsors a number of cultural and educational organizations and conducts social activities to provide enrichment experiences for students. Each club or organization is advised by a member of the College s full-time faculty or staff. West Virginia Northern actively strives to assist students in meeting their goals. To assist in this effort, volunteer student ambassadors are selected and trained in College policies and procedures, student development theory and interpersonal skills. These volunteer student ambassadors are available throughout the year to answer questions and guide students.
Student ambassadors wear special name tags for easy identification.
Activities of all organizations are subject to the College s policies, which provide for the appropriate recognition and supervision of activities. Copies of these policies are in the Student Handbook and are also available in the Office of Student Activities or the counselors offices on each regional campus. Intramural and Recreational Sports West Virginia Northern attempts to promote physical fitness by giving students an opportunity to participate in intramural competition. On the basis of student interest in sports, the College endorses the formation of intramural sports teams. The goals of the intramural program are recreation, social interaction, physical fitness and the development of team leadership and group cooperation.
