A landmark was set this year when the Board of Trustees approved with BOT Resolution No. 256 series of 1999, the Policies and Guidelines for Student Organizations. The approval signaled the strengthening of the policies for the smooth supervision of the College and Campus wide student organizations. The college believes that the fundamental aim of acknowledging these organizations is to tap the potentials and abilities of the students in line with leadership skills and community service.

The Office of the Student Affairs is guiding and assisting all student organizations in their endeavor to explore the world of work of a leader. The College adhered to the belief that students can contribute to the development of not only the institution but also of the community. Hence, student leaders or organizations have the key role in uplifting the condition of the College to achieve its Mission and Vision.

Student organizations have been growing in number and are proving to be partners in the development of the College. They have been initiating various activities that are of great help to the College as well as the outside community. Some of the activities regularly conducted by the student organizations are:
