Welcome!
The Student Life offers the opportunity for Lake Michigan College students to engage in activities outside the classroom. Students Life’s goal is to build community to support retention, expand students leadership skills, promote civic engagement through volunteering, build awareness around the human condition, and instill school spirit through social activities and athletic events on and off campus. A variety of clubs and organizations showcases the diverse interests of the student body with academic, social, and athletic clubs.
Clubs and Organizations
LMC has many academic, social and athletic organizations for you to join. You can meet new people with shared interests on campus, or travel the world! All students are welcome to join a club, or start one. Visit the club webpage or contact the student life office for more information.
Volunteer Opportunities
Do you enjoy working with others while making a difference in your community? We have multiple options for students to volunteer. Signature service projects that happen annually include "Make a Difference Day," "Martin Luther King. Jr. Service Week" and "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Day." Lake Michigan College's Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Day is one of the busiest volunteer days of the year. People from all over the area come to recycle used and broken electronics, paper, and more! Be part of the team that helps to make a difference in the area and the environment as a whole. Monthly volunteer opportunities involves a small group of students going out in the community to support organizations in the areas of homelessness, autism, the environment, schools, shelters, and more. Look for these events on the LMC calendar.
Leadership Events
Through Student Life, you have the opportunity to engage with leadership through monthly workshops, retreats, and attend leadership summits. The monthly leadership workshops are designed to work with your busy schedule. Each month a new topic will be introduced over lunch and you will be exposed to theories, best practices, and successful techniques - with only an hour of your time.
The LMC leadership retreat takes place in early fall. Spend a day exploring leadership through multiple lenses, engaging with current students, and applying new knowledge to your life, clubs, careers, and classes.
Lastly, the Grand Valley State University leadership summit takes place in the spring, where you can meet students from colleges and universities all over the state. The summit includes workshops, keynotes speakers, case study competition, and networking revolving around leadership. Keep an eye out for these events on the LMC calendar!
