Associated Students of College of Marin (ASCOM) and clubs at the College of Marin (COM) are student-initiated and run. Involvement outside of the classroom provides opportunities to develop valuable leadership skills, explore areas of interest and passion, and prepare students for transfer to a four-year institution, or future career opportunities. Students learn effective communication skills, cross-cultural experiences across populations, how to work with others, and make friends.
ALL EVENTS WILL BE IN PERSON IN SPRING 2022! Questions? Contact the Office of Student Activities and Advocacy at studentactivities@marin.edu.
Interclub Council
The Inter-Club Council (ICC) is a student-run organization that oversees the work and progress of student clubs on Campus and is also an auxiliary committee of ASCOM for this matter. ICC is an open floor for student clubs to be able to collaborate, share ideas, and discuss any other student interest-related topics together as a team during the ICC Meetings, in which each student club is represented by an ICC representative that has been elected. ICC aims to serve as a bridge for ASCOM, Clubs, and the student body to have the opportunity to build a community, advocate for students, and improve social life on Campus.
