The Associated Students of Ventura College in partnership with our VC Student Clubs host a Student Life Day celebration every semester. For the Fall 2020 Student Life Day, Student Clubs and Organizations did things a little differently this year to highlight our Clubs at our virtual Student Life Day. Each Club presented information on their clubs regarding club activities, meetings, and initiatives and how students can get involved at VC. Some students who attended Student Life Day also won giveaways for items such as wireless headphones, Alexa Fire Sticks, Echo Dot Smart Speakers, Wireless Mice, and Pebblebee wallet and key finders!

Join the Associated Students of Ventura College and the Ventura College Political Science Club Thursday, November 5th from 12-1 via Zoom for a Reflection on the Election Student Forum. This is a forum to help students dealing with anxiety, nervousness, and depression surrounding the Election. We think it is important to host a virtual space for students to ask questions and share their voices. The VC Student Health Center Nurse Coordinator, Mary Jones and VC Mental Health Counselor, Andrew Nelson will be addressing concerns related to anxiety, nervousness, and depression during the event. VC Political Science Faculty Kenyon Callahan and Corinna McKoy will facilitate a dialogue around the presidential elections. We think it’s important to provide students with a space to express their voices, especially as we continue to remain virtual due to COVID-19! For more information, please contact Colin Braza at ASVCdea@vcccd.edu or Libby Fatta at lfatta@vcccd.edu.
