STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS AT EVERGREEN
Evergreen's student organizations are valuable sources of cultural enrichment,
personal growth, lasting friendships and solidarity. Involvement can help you learn
to more effectively work within groups and with other organizations while also
helping you develop leadership skills. Student fees fund more than 40 active student
groups, offering a wide variety of opportunities for your participation.
Organizations like Asian Students in Alliance (ASIA), MEChA, Native Students
in Alliance, U moja, Women of Color Coalition - are coordinated by Students of
Color for Students of Color. These organizations, active throughout the academic
year, produce cross-cultural events; bring speakers, films, and entertainment for the
community; sponsor conferences and celebrations; and play an integral role in the
college's goals of enhancing cultural diversity and student empowerment.
At Evergreen, you'll find that student organizations are more than just "clubs" or
social alliances. Of course they provide activities and opportunities for fun and social
interaction, but they also provide cultural, educational, recreational and spiritual
services to students. Working with First Peoples Advising Service, and with the
Community of Color, these First Peoples Student Organizations conduct important
work against racism and harassment and help the entire community understand,
welcome, and honor diversity. Involvement can give you one of your best and most
worthwhile experiences as a student.
Student organization offices are located on the third floor of the College Activities Building, along with the Student Activities' professional staff, who will help you
get connected with all of the student groups and find out what's happening on
campus. The staff also assist in interpretation of campus policies and procedures or
local, state and federal laws as they pertain to campus issues (permits for vendors,
political campaigning, spending of state funds for student activities, etc.), and assist
with developing student-initiated programs and activities.
First Peoples Student Organizations include:
Asian Students in Alliance (ASIA)
Movimiento Estudiantil Chicanos Aztlan (MEChA)
Native Students in Alliance
Pacific Islander Association
Umoja (Swahili for "unity"), African American Student Organization
Women of Color Coalition
