Student Activities

A vital part of the Champlain St-Lambert experience are student activities. CEGEP isn't just about classrooms, studying, taking exams and researching in the library. CEGEP is also about making new friends...joining clubs and participating in club activities...taking chances on new experiences...and having fun. Student activities are designed to continue the learning process started in the classroom. These activities provide opportunities to develop leadership potential, social awareness, and self-discipline. Students are encouraged to participate in student activities to maintain a proper balance between academic pursuits and personal development.

At Champlain St-Lambert, students every year participate in activities sponsored by student clubs, intercollegiate athletic teams, the Champlain Student Association (CSA) and the College's administration. These include concerts throughout the year, multicultural events, carnivals, charity fundraisers, comedy showcases, movie nights, field trips, "Midnight Madness" (a sport played in teams until midnight followed by a pizza party afterwards), live debates, and trips to warmer climates when the weather gets freezing cold. Student life is an important part of the Champlain experience -- there is something for just about everyone, and opportunities abound for students who want to get involved or who have new ideas to propose.

Greatly contributing to student activities are two Champlain Student Association sponsored facilities for students:

1. "The Comfort Zone", which is a lounge with a satellite dish TV connection that provides diversion for its visitors.

2. "The Band Ring", a large activity room that includes pool tables, video games, table soccer, all of this within a musical ambiance provided by CHAM Radio (Champlain St-Lambert's student radio group).
