The role of the Office of Student Activities (OSA) is to create and promote out-of-classroom experiences for students. Student Activities interacts closely with the members of over thirty (30) student organizations, assisting their leaders in the areas of leadership skills training and event programming.
Our collaborative efforts also include working with the elected leaders of the Student Government Association (SGA) to register clubs and manage the student electoral process. The Office of Student Activities (OSA) provides a wide-array of services to the college community. Some of the most common services are (1) to develop extra-curricular activities for the college community; (2) to serve as a general advisor to the SGA;
(3) to certify student organizations on campus; (4) to assist student organizations
in the planning and development of activities; (5) to alert
the college community of activities organized by student
organizations and SGA; and (6) to manage the funds for
student organizations and other entities that received
awards from the Hostos Association.
In essence, the office seeks to promote the
creation of cultural, educational and social events that
captivate, educate, entertain and effectively serve the college
community. During the academic year, the office coordinates and
implements conferences, visits to legislative offices, and
offers workshops on various student development topics. During
the summer, the office works closely with the newly-elected
student government members to help them become acquainted with
the responsibilities that they are about to undertake.
