The Campus Life Committee of CCSC was created to build community within Columbia College and across the university. Our events are meant to encourage students and help them further enjoy the campus that they are on everyday. Over the years, we have made an increased effort to collaborate with other student groups to help bring our diverse community together. In addition, we are making an effort to do more events that address a wide variety of interests. The committee is always open to new members and new event ideas so please feel free to reach out to us!

It was a great way for students to relax, show off their artistic abilities and, with a
Today’s Homecoming Week event was CU Blue, where we gave away dozens and dozens of cupcakes and soda to spirited students. The Lerner ramps were packed with Columbians proudly donning as much blue apparel as possible. And for those who forgot to wear their school colors, a loud chant of “Roar, Lion, Roar” won them a cupcake prize. Come to the Thursday Arts and Crafts event from 12:00 to 1:30
