One of the best ways to get involved at De Anza College is to join a club on campus. De Anza hosts over 40 clubs that tender to a wide variety of interests. Getting involved in a club is a great way to meet new people and make friends.
If you can’t find a club that matches your interests, you can start your own club. Pick up a “How to start a new club” packet from the literature rack outside the Student Activities Office. Information on club meeting times and locations are also available in the club glass display case located on the lower level of the Campus Center.
