Student Life
Attending college is more than classes and studying. The Student Life Program provides continuing service to students through their academic career while attending DCTC.
The Student Life program serves to enhance the quality to student life and the success of students through participation in social, cultural, educational and recreational activities. The office of Student Life supports and promotes student involvement in extra-curricular activities, such as student organizations, student activities, Student Senate, athletics and intramural sports.
Student Lounge
Located on the first floor, in the east commons, the Student Life Lounge offers students an opportunity to relax and socialize between classes. Catch up on current events through the new channel, catch your favorite soap opera, music video and special programs that are scheduled during the semester for your entertainment.
