Let's Get Involved
Student Government
The purpose of Student Government (ASGHC) is to represent the needs of the
students to faculty and administration. Student Government also has an active
role in campus activities including support of clubs, athletics, and campus
wide special events. Council members serve on most Grays Harbor College committees
including: Tenure Review committees, the President’s Cabinet, the Student
Technology Advisory Committee, and the Student Review Committee. Elections
to the Student Council are held in fall and spring quarters. Interested students
should contact the Coordinator of Student Programs or the ASGHC office (Room
172 ext. 4087) in the Hillier Union Building (HUB) for information on how
to get involved. All students are encouraged to come to the ASGHC weekly
meetings in the ASGHC Conference Room also located in the HUB. Watch the
weekly calendar for further details.
Student Clubs and Organizations
Representatives of all chartered campus organizations comprise the Associated
Student Club Coordinating Council (CCC), chaired by the ASGHC Vice President.
The primary function of the CCC is to promote student unity and to help organize
various student activities, including program planning, coordination, and
charter review. Students can learn how to start a new club from the Coordinator
of Student Programs in Room 171.
Drama
During the school year, at least three major productions are presented by the
Grays Harbor College Players. The performances may include a modern play,
a classical play, a musical, and/or a children’s play. Theater may be taken
with or without credit. Theater is planned to give students who are interested
in dramatics as a hobby or as part of a theater or education
major an opportunity to perform as much as possible. Rehearsals are arranged
to meet the needs of the cast. Production staffs give students who prefer not
to
act an opportunity to manage different parts of
the performances.
Music
Grays Harbor College offers a number of excellent performance groups from the
music department. College Chorale, Jazz Vocal Ensemble, and Jazz Band rehearse
during the regular daytime schedule and are open to all students with choral
and/or instrumental experience. These groups present one concert per quarter
on campus.
Athletics
Grays Harbor College is a member of the Northwest Athletic Association of Community
Colleges (NWAACC) and our teams compete throughout Washington and Oregon.
Intercollegiate sports programs offered at GHC include basketball, golf,
and baseball for men; volleyball, basketball, softball, and golf for women. “Chokers” has
been adopted as the official mascot of our athletic teams. For more information
regarding scholarships, tryouts, or schedules, contact the athletic director
or the coach of the sport.
