Student Involvement
The purpose of a student organization is to bring everyone together based on their interests and build relations. Student organizations bring students together based on shared interests to create connections, build relationships, expand skills, and develop as leaders while making lifelong friends.
Get involved at OCC by joining or creating a student group! Meet and work with fellow students who have similar interests, goals and passions.

Student Hubs
Have some time between classes? Stop by one of OCC’s Student Hubs to hang out with friends, study or play board games, video games, ping pong and foosball. Student Hubs are also a great place to hold your club or organization’s weekly or monthly meetings, or host an event such as a game night or pizza party.
When students take advantage of all that the Student Hubs can offer, you may just find that you have a home away from home!

- Orchard Ridge | Building J, Room 184 |(248) 522-3749
Student Hubs are open this summer! See below for summer hours:

Welcome to Oakland Community College (OCC)! As a student you are an important part
of our campus community. I am privileged to serve as your Dean of Student Engagement
and focus my leadership on creating a healthy, safe and inclusive college where you
can maximize your personal potential while pursuing your educational dreams.
The Office of Student Engagement is responsible for overseeing the planning and execution
of programs and activities that engage and connect our diverse students at Oakland
Community College. The Office provides programming that creates a sense of belonging,
offers leadership development and supports student success. This office also provides
direct oversight for student organizations, PTK, Student Government, Peer Mentoring
and the Student Hubs on campuses.
These efforts assist students to make sensible and informed decisions about academic
and personal matters, negotiate the opportunities and challenges that are an important
part of a highly demanding academic environment, and find appropriate resources within
and beyond the division of Student Services. We also work with a range of collaborative
partners including academic departments and programs to create opportunities for students,
faculty, staff, and community members to integrate the learning that takes place inside
and outside of the classroom.
