Clubs & Organizations

As a student enrolled at Brookdale you are automatically a member of the Associated Students of Brookdale Community College (ASBCC) and you can participate in the College's activities program.

We have clubs and organizations that supplement your classroom experiences, as well as special interest groups. Each group is supervised by a Student Life Coordinator and a Brookdale faculty/staff advisor who is appointed annually by the Office of Student Life and Activities.

The actual list of organized student clubs and organizations varies each year, as new interests and energies emerge. At present, the following clubs and organizations are established at the college. Please stop by the Office of Student Life and Activities, SLC Room 101 or call (732) 224-2390 for more information.
