STUDENT CLUBS
Find your people! Join one of our many student clubs — or start your own. From academic interests to cultural groups, activism, and creative arts, there’s something for everyone.
STUDENT ASSOCIATION (CCSA)
As a student at Columbia College, you’re automatically a member of the CCSA — your voice, your community, your student government.
Each semester, we hold college-wide elections to select twelve (12) students to serve on the CCSA Executive Committee. These elected representatives go on to lead and participate in various subcommittees, helping shape student life and advocate for the student body.
